Spy or Ambassador?

As we see the hardships of those who are reaping what they've sown we need to look inwardly. We need to ask the Lord if that which He finds displeasing in others does He find displeasing in us. Do we see the affliction of others and see but for the grace of God that could of been us? There was one that pled our case. There was someone willing to intercede on our behalf. First it was Jesus then it was Christians who loved us enough to pray for our lost souls. Are we interceding on the behalf of those we love?
