There’s a Gospel passage, that, when I hear it, makes me squirm in my pew...
"Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?” MATTHEW 7:3 NASB
My first inclination is to try to apply it to people I know, with my own self at the bottom of the list...but then THE TRUTH wins...Because whenever you point the finger at anyone, three fingers are pointing back to you...!!!
Truth be known, the reason you can recognize the faults of others so easily is that those same faults, to some extent, are in you...
The grace of God helps you to see this, and that is THE GOOD NEWS...
We are ALL sinners, but as long as we keep our eyes on THE LORD and TRUST HIM AS OUR SAVIOR...we are like that old woman who put 2 small coins in the Temple treasury...THAT IS THE GOOD NEWS...!!!
SO...HAVE A GREAT 4TH OF JULY WEEKEND AND ALWAYS KEEP THE LORD JESUS FIRST IN YOUR MIND AND HEART...!!!
