I love John Orberg's book with that title.  I love the title too.

Isn't funny how we all think we're normal and everyone else is nuts???

We're all blind to our own stuff.  It's so easy to see other people's flaws though, isn't it?

We need more grace in this world.

We need to give each other MORE grace.

And we need to give ourselves more grace.........

Jesus said that we are going to be judged in the same way that we judge others.  Uh-oh.  All those things we've accused other people of?  All those things we've said about others?

Could it be that in some ways, we will be our own judges?  And the criteria that will be used will be the same criteria we use to judge others???

I've always believed that the thing that bothers us most about others is the same thing that bothers us most about ourselves.

Someone once told me that other people will accuse you of doing the very thing that they are most guilty of.........I have to say, it seems like there is some truth to that! 

I think we all need to focus on giving others more love, forgiveness & grace.  That's one way to be sure that we will receive it from our Lord when we stand before Him!

Do something nice for someone today!  Let's not tear each other down.  Let's work hard to build each other up.  Maybe it will be contagious & everyone will start being nice!  Hey, it could happen!

Have a blessed day with Jesus!

Love in Him,
