But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.” - Galatians 5:15

I served with honor in the Viet Nam War. On occasion we would hear of some of our own soldiers who were killed, not by the enemy but by “friendly fire.” That was always some of the saddest news to hear. So it is in our service for God as well. Paul warns us to not bite...

This is a timely and oh-so-true message. We need to resist "going after" our brothers and sisters in Christ, and instead, pray, asking GOD to intervene, so that NONE of us bring shame to His name.

As i think on it, it is PRIDE that mostly prompts us to attack our brothers and sisters, and in those instances, we are more on the side of the enemy than in God's army. God help us to be wise, and restrained in our condemnation of our own, as we pray pray pray about the issue.

Thank you for this timely and powerful reminder to slow our roll in condemning our brothers and sisters, remembering the plank in our own eye, and remembering that we ALL need prayer, and we ALL need God's grace, because NONE of us are perfect.

Let's not be amongst those accused of "shooting their own".

God bless you on this clear and cold but beautiful early Tuesday morning in November.

So true Brinny and a good morning to you. Too often we think more highly of our self than we should.

Bright sunny day here with the temps in the mid-50s.

Hope you have a blessed day!
