Romans 2:1 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.

How many times have you told someone they need to forgive and forget, then go home and get mad at someone else for not doing things?

If we could be honest with ourselves all the time, we would let go of the things we hold on to and forgive ourselves as well as forgiving others.

Yes, we do have to forgive ourselves just as we do forgive others. Without that, we hold on to the very things we try to let go of...

Psalm 119:39 Take away the disgrace I dread, for your laws are good.

Do you look at the laws of the land as the government telling you off, or do you look at the law as something you should aim to obey?

Why then should you look at the bible in any other way but the same guide for getting things right?

God wants to encourage us and has given us the truth written down for our use – His scriptures are good!

Proverbs 3:7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.

When you do something wrong, how many times do you try to cover it up by bending the truth, failing to admit it or just plain lies?

God wants us to leave this way of living behind and to look to Him for guidance in wisdom and love.

He wants us to trust in Him and to obey what He asks so we can have the best chance at getting our lives right this time!

James 4:7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

If we are willing to humble ourselves before God, He is willing and faithful to build us up in front of others!

How many times have you tried to show you are good in front of other Christians... and failed because something went wrong!

How many times have you succeeded in something because you gave it over to God instead of trying to prove you can do it?

Be honest with God and allow Him to build you up in front of others!
