I am becoming more mindful that “the rule” I use to measure/judge/criticize with is used to measure me, too, so I can’t claim ignorance should my time end with me in mid-criticism.

And then we wonder why we are chastised.

Right. The “wondering” part is one of His best teaching tools: “Who’s that knocking at my door?”

He will do/allow what is necessary to get us to that point, I suppose based upon us and what we give him with our wants and choices.

I’ve learned “the hard way” that I have several bundles of choice, kiln dried 2x10x20 planks in my eyes.

Fortunately, He’s teaching me how to drive my mental/emotional forklift so I can move them back to the warehouse where they belong.

Once I do that, I might, might, be qualified to help with anyone’s splinters, should anyone ever ask for my help.
