"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Philippians 4:6
It's hard when you know a lot. It's hard when you know what they are going through. It's hard even when you know what is right, because the problem: how are you going to tell them, arises. It's hard when you want to say something but you can't because you're not in the right situation to speak; you can't speak your opinion.
If you choose to speak, best if God will come out of your mouth; best if you let the Holy Spirit take over the mouth; best if Jesus will be heard to you.
Do not complicate yourself. The enemy knows the bible more than you know the facts in it. The enemy might use it to deceive you. Always ask the Holy Spirit to guide you. Always ask the Father to protect you. Always ask Jesus: O Lord, what will you do if you are in my position.
Look at Him ,Only and Alone.
It's that someone's consolation when he/she shines because of Christ. It is the prize of following Him. It necessarily mean that you should follow what that person really do, because if that is so, what's the essence of asking ourselves: What would Jesus do if He's in my situation.
If you choose someone to follow, BEST to choose Him. He is the perfect model, and even when we say He is Perfect, He still humbled Himself. He proved to us that even as a human, we can still overcome what the world throws at us when we just abide to the Father.
“But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ … So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother’s way.” Romans 14:10-13
"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." Galatians 6:9
Let us not stumble! God wants us to look the big picture, not what is in our hands, not what we only see, not what we only feel. He wants us to stand up when we tripped on the ground. He wants us to help each other and not fight with each other. He called us brothers and sisters, so isn't it enough to treat everyone just like He did?
Eeeeeet! Let's stop it. God is not happy with what is happening now.
We can't expect God to comfort us in times like this because this is something we need to work out. WE NEED TO GLORIFY GOD and not ourselves. WE NEED NOT TO PLEASE OURSELVES. STOP THE SELFISHNESS.
This too shall pass.
