Thought for Wednesday August 28


You have searched me and you know me, Lord.
If I take the wings of the dawn,
if I settle at the farthest limits of the sea,
Even there your hand shall guide me,
and your right hand hold me fast.
You have searched me and you know me, Lord.


Matthew 23: 27 - 32  Jesus said, "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You are like whitewashed tombs, which appear beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and every kind of filth.  Even so, on the outside you appear righteous, but inside you are filled with hypocrisy and evildoing."

Do I have the wisdom to recognize the evil on the inside or do I get fooled by external appearances?  Are there times I don't look below the surface because I just don't want to deal with the truth?

Action:  Be honest about the hypocrisy you see and don't get drawn into it.
