A chronically occurring Christian dilemma is the modulation of love's indulgence vs love's need for objective discernment. At what point must one stop indulging a weakness of others and switch to a stern requirement of accountability. Certainly life has its victims--it is not always kind in the cards it deals out--at the same time to feel sorry for someone to the point of selling out one's own sense of what is right and necessary is to replace compassion with blind indulgence. I have found no blanket resolution for this dilemma. Heartfelt/exploratory prayer seeking guidance is regularly necessary.
