Today’s Thought  “Potato Chips Before Bed” G. Ward

 

“Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be noticed by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 6:1

 

Great irony will disturb ordinary contemplations that can either promote criticism or personal interrogation of one’s own soul. Mankind has established patterns in deflections vs. admittance towards their need to comply with righteousness. Moreover, our Academy Award performance unto others seeks to exact normalcy at all times that hides the enormity in personal issues unresolved.

We would do well to more question why mercy was/is needed for our lives, and then adjust accordingly. The whole objective for a person of faith is not a pretentious surrender to our Lord, but to allow HIM to walk ahead of us so that HIS magnificence is the first view.

Happy Thursday!
