This week I was reading about hypocrisy. It’s funny to me how God gives us opportunities to practice what we learn about.

This morning when I saw Matt’s shoes (top pic) in the bathroom I grew frustrated…until I turned around and saw my shoes behind the door (bottom pic)😊. Isn’t it interesting how we don’t get upset with ourselves like we do with others? It was a humbling moment that I owned and shared with Matt.

This moment was a reminder to me to be sure I am seeing myself clearly before I consider judging or getting frustrated with others.

Have you ever found yourself frustrated with someone to realize you are doing the same thing too?

If so, I invite you to join me today to…

pause. breathe. pray.

May we seek God first to help us see ourselves more clearly and stop being quick to judge others. This process is humbling and refining yet worth it, especially for our relationships.

With love and hope,
Shawn
