A RECALIBRATED HEART

It is not possible for me to treat someone better than I feel about them or have previously felt about them behind their back, especially if I’ve ever let those feelings spill out of my mouth to someone else. A judgmental attitude toward others, justified or not, keep us trapped in disappointment, hindering our ability to positively relate to them. How is it that I can see my own faults and still believe I can change yet withhold that same faith and grace toward someone else? This is wrong in every way. After all, in James 2:9 (NLT) we read: “If you favor some people over others, you are committing a sin. You are guilty of breaking the law”. Shall I judge myself or someone I like with greater mercy and favor than someone I don’t? God will not play along with that kind of hypocrisy. LORD of Love, in Your mercy, recalibrate my heart to Your Divine Will and Ways. Let Your forgiveness flow freely through me to others.
