Luke 11:37 Jesus Criticizes the Religious Leaders
Oh, my goodness, Lord!
Luke 12:1 A Warning Against Hypocrisy
Double-oh, my goodness, Lord!!
This is a minefield for me. I am quick to criticize "religious leaders," and then I do find myself wondering at my own hypocrisy. Please work in my heart to see as You see, to hold everything including myself up to Your high standards, but not to judge. That responsibility belongs to You alone. Just because others do not see things as I see them does not (necessarily) mean that they are wrong. That is the normal way of interpreting the world, though. How does one know when one is right? Holy Spirit, You need to lead me into all truth, and that must include the truth about being right--and wrong. I will listen, though I know it will take practice and humility. I don't have enough of either. In Jesus's name, for the sake of the kingdom of God, and by the tutelage of the Holy Spirit I pray~~Amen.
