James 5:9 ~ Brothers, do not complain about one another, so that you will not be judged. Look, the judge stands at the door.
Just as God gave these words to James for him and the people of his time, we (I) must be reminded of this verse. James saw where people were complaining about one another - judging one another. The Lord inspired him to give the people these words to remind them that He - the Living God is the only acceptable judge for our actions.
God has been speaking this to me lately. I am sure it is a reiteration or reminder of that this morning. I find it easy to complain or judge others when it is not my place and I should just shut up and do what He has called me to do. I am not perfect in my techniques, timing and delivery of things but God still graces me to do my work in spite of my self. It is easier to point fingers at others or judge others when I have a different perspective but what I must remember is that my perspective is not always the best and that we (I) all must grown and learn along the way.
So my prayer today is that God helps me to shut up, mind my own business and do the work that He has called me to do. I do not make perfect decisions but God grace me to make the right decisions.
1 Corinthians 10:12 ~ So, whoever thinks he stands must be careful not to fall.
