Was I right to do that?

Well I had the conversation with my friends about the drugs thing and then after I felt very upset about whether I had made the right decision to basically say that I didn't want to be around anymore when they were taking it.

As I said before, the issue isn't drugs but I what I was trying to do was to show love, because I really value our friendship and I don't feel that I'm doing that while being with them whilst their taking it.

I did start to think that its made me come across judgemental on them but that's not what I'm trying to do at all, its actually because I care about them so much. At this point I also read a blog by one of Brian's contacts called 'Brutal Beaters' where he writes about a girl who is no longer a christian and how people have been beaten and wounded by the church and its people. he talks about the story in the bible about the good Samaritan, how sometimes we actually represent the people that beat the man up rather then the Samaritan that helped out. I thought for minute is that me? Is that what I have done to my friends? was I right to do that? am I coming across as trying to hard to be righteous?

I have even tried to cut down on the fags to perhaps see how difficult it would be to give up something you enjoy. Not doing too bad actually, no fags before 6pm every day and then just a few at night.

But I have continued to mull this over and pray about it, then I read a blog from one of my mates Brian and he summed it up, thanks Brian. Also If your gonna check out his blog listen to the podcast about grace swaying her hips really liked this!
