Good morning! How are we faithing? There's a whole lot of us quick to point fingers and chastise others who stumble and fall. Correction is necessary but be very careful. No one has it all figured out. No one is immune to mistakes. No one has any right to speak as if they are never are in need of correction. Our savior Jesus the Christ didn't want sacrifice but mercy. There isn't much of anything more irritating than someone who thinks they know it all and correct others constantly. Unsolicited advice is interference and we must be very careful not to turn people off by our own ego or lack of humbleness. Just like in Proverbs says there are times for certain things under heaven and by being in the Word daily we will improve but never will we improve to the point we are above reproach. Sometimes it is not necessary to speak up and some times it is. Sometimes the infraction is a result of some other problem and if we seek God's face and approach in love we may see the root cause,address that and the infraction fixes itself.
Mat 9:12-13
But when he heard it, he said, They that are whole have no need of a physician, but they that are sick.
But go ye and learn what this meaneth, I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.
Pro 21:3
To do righteousness and justice Is more acceptable to Jehovah than sacrifice.

Heavenly Father,
Oh Lord, forgive our sins and when we step out of line. Draw us back to your shadow so we may live upright and chast. Lord help us see needs and meet whatever we can. We do lift those who are lost to you. Draw them to yourself and use us if need be. Help us control our tongues in Jesus name, amen
