Tough

I know we are to LOVE as Jesus Loved. We are not to judge, least we be judged. Love thy neighbor as thyself.  Easier said than done.

We really need to think about what we say and how we say it. We can ruin so much with our words because once they’re spoken we can not UNhear/unsend them. The bible says our tongue is like a two-edged sword. Words  do cut deep, deeper than some physical wounds. I can still remember words spoken by my ex, my daughter, my eldest Son even some kids from elementary school. When I do think of them…they still hurt.

I know nothing I say or do is going to help me get into heaven. I know my way was paved when God came here as a man to suffer and die and live again so that I could be saved. It is done! Trying to be good is not going to help me.

We as people are inherently not good. At least not God Good. We might think we are all that but we are not. We fall so short of worthy for what Jesus did for us before he even knew us, there can never be enough I’m sorrys. But we do not have to worry. That is why God sent Him, because He already knew we were going to mess it all up. Jesus is our out.

No matter how good we think we are we are at least that bad. pride, humility, judging, trying to pull slivers of wood from your friends eye with the plank in your own eye.

We can not change people, only God can do that. All we can do is concentrate on our own and let God handle the rest. You know if you try to fix it you are just going to make it worse. So give it to God! Pray for your enemies, pray for forgiveness for being so stupid and not going to Him first. Then let it GO! He’s Got it. Really, God has always had it.
