5.11- Who do you turn to when you realize that you have made a bad mistake?

 5.11-

 Who do you turn to when you realize that you have made a bad mistake? That is a critical decision.

A friend who:
is willing to help me improve the situation instead of saying, “That’s your problem.”
Is understanding.
Is sympathetic.
Is loving.
Is compassionate.
Is humble.

Philippians 2.

Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any [a]affection and compassion, make my joy complete [b]by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. Do nothing [c]from [d]selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility consider one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Have this attitude [e]in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, as He already existed in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be [f]grasped, but [g]emptied Himself by taking the form of a bond-servant and [h]being born in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death: death [i]on a cross. For this reason also God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

12 So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; 13 for it is God who is at work in you, both to [j]desire and to work for His good pleasure.
