Christians United: 10 months, 2 weeks ago I don’t know, but I got a little irritated today. One of my coworkers who happens to be a friend of mine goes to church, professes to love God, but uses profanity a lot. I have tried talking to her about it, however I feel like I am talking to dead air. Help?
Sorry for not responding earlier, Kim.
It is difficult to ”correct” others. The only way it can be done is when the Holy Spirit moves upon us and we speak in LOVE. It is HE that enables any of us to ”clean up our act.”
In the mean time, I suggest that you simply live a life of love and kindness before your coworker. In time, they may respond.
We are to be salt and light. When we are the salt, we make others THIRSTY for the ”Water of Life.” They see something in us that makes them want what we have. At that point, your coworker may ASK YOU about spiritual matters.
Be ready to give a REASON for your hope.
