Offenses come when interacting with others. So being offended is unavoidable, unless you make your own clothes, grow your own food, and

provide your own shelter. Some product from another is likely to fail and offend you unless your doing the afore things mentioned and walking alone.

Spiritual individuals look before criticizing others. We must assess our own ability to cause an offense. We know the danger associated to those who kick against the pricks so to speak. Knowing that it is dangerous to interfere with the purpose, gifts and callings of those chosen by God, we allow patience to run its course.

Placing roadblocks on a person, or a people who are obedient to God is perilous. There are historical examples of individuals who surmounted great opposition to achieve great things. When these accomplishments consist of God’s plan for man those who oppose are muted and placed on the wrong side of history.
