(Jesus continued) “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you tithe mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law, justice and mercy and faith; these you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. You blind guides straining out a gnat and swallowing a camel. Matthew 23:23 – 25
Lord, You continued to show them what they were doing wrong. All this did was make them more and more upset because You were exposing who they really were…..hypocrites….saying one thing and doing another. Acting as if they were pious when they were just the opposite.
Lord You shine Your spotlight on us today too. You want us to be the best we can be. It is Your spotlight that helps us to see ourselves as we truly are. Thank You that we can ask for Your help and strive to be changed into Your image.
Oh how we thank You that each moment of every day we can grow and change as we look to You and trust.
Thank You! Thank You Lord.
