The devil loves to keep us busy, identifying and judging the faults of others in our minds👆🔨. That way, we never see or deal with what is wrong with us😎! When we focus our thoughts and conversations on the shortcomings of others, we are usually being deceived about our own conduct😎. Therefore, Jesus commanded that we not concern ourselves with the wrongs of others when we have so much wrong with ourselves(Matt 7:3-5: Why do you stare from without at the very small particle that is in your brothers eye but do not become aware of and consider the beam of timber that is in your own eye👉👈? Or how can you say to your brother, Let me get the tiny particle out of your eye, when there is a beam of timber in your own eye? You hypocrite, first get the beam of timber out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the tiny particle out of your brothers eye👆). We cannot change others; only God can.🔧🔩We cannot change ourselves either, but we can cooperate with the Holy Spirit and allow Him to do the work.🔧🔩 Allow God to deal with you first, 🙌and then you will be able to humbly, lovingly, and effectively help others.👐 Have a blessed day!
