2 Corinthians 1:3-4
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
*God is suppose to be our role model on how we should treat others. The love, blessings, and treatment that He displays also serves as an example. Yes, people make unnecessary mistakes and may partake in foolishness that they have been pre-warned about in the beginning. However, it is not our job to hit them with an "I told u so" attitude. This is us trying to play God, and take on the responsibility of judgment that was never our job from the beginning. We are to walk in love instead, explain to people what has occurred, and comfort them be it through physical touch or help them formulate a plan of action. First, seek God for the method of comfort. You can never go wrong with His guidance on how to handle someone, especially during their time of need, or using God as an example for how to approach people. However, be Spirit led. Do not allow your emotions to pick out the way in which u should address a person, even if u have seen that measure used in the Bible. There is a time and place for specific reactions, so allow God to determine the type during someone else's time of need.
