Accepting without passing judgment - Romans 14:1-4; 17-18

Good morning all. God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!!
   Well, we did a family vacation (15 of us) and spent 4 days together, in 1 house, where we did not have internet, but we had the whole outdoors.  So many times we become so wrapped up in the daily routines of life we fail to look around and observe what is truly important and what truly matters.  Family matters, and if you spend time ignoring or forgetting family you may wake up one day alone.
    Romans 14:1-4  "Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters.  One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables.  The man who eats everything must not look down on him who does not, and the man who does not eat everything must not condemn the man who does, for God has accepted him.  Who are you to judge someone else's servant?  To his own master he stands or falls.  And he will stand, for the LORD is able to make him stand."
   These verses, my friends, is about family.  Your personal family, and the family of God.  Why do we wish to tell others what to do?  What they should eat?  Wear? Act? Etc.  Look not down on others, but let you cast a loving eye on them, love them, accept them and share God's peace.
   Romans 14:17-18 "For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit, because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men."
   Do you have peace and joy through the Holy Spirit?  Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
