Changing the World

...begin with yourself. Came across this topic in the Daily Bread yesterday- very meaningful, so wanted to share with everyone . Jesus told a parable about the problems of not seeing our own faults. He said, "How can you say to your brother, 'Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye,' when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye? First remove the plank from your own eye" (Luke 6:42).

It is easy for us to point out other ppl's fault and it takes a lot of courage to ask ourselves if it'sour own attitude that needs to be changed. Maybe it's ourself that need to apologise. Maybe it's ourself that needs a humble spirit. We can't change others, but with God's help we can change our own behavior. And when our attitude changes, it may seem as if others have changed as well.

To change can be a wonderful prospect,

Though often it's met with resistance,

The transformation begins within us

And will take a lot of persistance - Hess

When God works a change in us, He can change others through us.
