One More Fact

I'm really ready to just cut and paste today's "My Utmost For His Highest." As if I can add anything to the profundity there.

I work in an industry that makes its money by being critical - of itself, of its work, of each other. It's how you get ahead, how you stay ahead. So the idea of "turning off" that critical nature is difficult, but its true.

One thing I find about Jesus' commands: that obeying them is about our obedience and his sovereignty. AND about our peace. In other words, obeying Him brings peace. There is a definite reward for obedience, and frankly, a definite consequence for disobedience.

Note to self (and you): Put your measuring stick away and ...stop trying to decipher the facts behind your friends flaws (try saying that 10 times fast). Live in peace, past judgement. Let your pride fall down. You might actually see a person there, a person who needs you.
