But he (fill in the blank)...
Well, they didn't do their job, so I gonna do this (not to mention tear down their character)...
Casting blame is easy. Justifying our own sins and actions based on what someone else does. We do anything to keep the spotlight off of our own hearts of imperfection.
Yes, I do this A LOT!
But how Jesus' words and the Holy Spirit have convicted me of the the words that far too easily spill out of my mouth. Words I wouldn't dare to day to their face. Blame. Rejection. Comparison.
All of it to tear down another person or hide my own flaws and mistakes; to place responsibility on another person for my actions.
It has nothing to do with love.
O how I want to learn to humbly love.
I am. From the Master. Speaking blessings and not curses. Praying for a changed heart. A heart that is secure in His Words about me that it doesn't cross my mind to speak poorly of another. And I want to be quick to take the weight of my actions, whether they require a quiet humility to accept praise or to humbly repent.
