When I was brought back into faith I learned mind my own flaws and that's it. Applying this lesson is a growing thing I am seeing
Yes, I can understand that and I appreciate it. You sound like a genuinely sensitive person in a good way. However, the natural reaction to someone who has hurt our feelings or worse is to hate them. And it can take time to overcome. I depend upon God to help me with many things and that is one reason why I pray. The older I get the more it impresses upon me the concept in what is called the "Lord's Prayer." Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. So by that I think we must realize God can and will forgive us for our sins if we ask Him to. But we also must work on forgiving those who sin against us.
G-d searches our hearts and knows our soul, that is where our help is, as far as I know.
