self examination

The ability to think critically about one's self is mandatory for growth in this life.  We are very good at looking at others critically, but if we are to grow, we need to spend some time in honest introspection.  We need to look at who we are and what we are doing.  We need to consider, not simply our intent, but the results of our actions on others.

Some years ago, with the best of intentions I pressed what I called Christian values on some folks.  They rebelled.  In fact, I hurt them. 

If there is anything that we should not do, it is to hurt others.

What are your actions?  How do they affect others?  The ability to think critically about one's self is mandatory for growth.

It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
