Forgiveness, Home Repair and 1 Peter 4:8

I noticed an interesting phenomena as I applied joint compound (aka "mud") on several walls in our home as I got it ready for paint. As I would cover over a bad spot, restoring it ts usefulness and asctetic beauty, I would notice other flaws and cover over them as well. I was not looking as a critic but a compassionate restorer. I had the best interests of my home and household in mind.

God wants His family, Christ's Church to operate in a similar fashion.

1 Peter 4:8 says "Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins."
