You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.
~ Matthew 7:5
Such a small yet strong and outstanding verse. Talking about not literally about a log or speck but the log or speck standing for sin or wrong doings.
Recently I have been in this situation.. except more on the receiving end of it all. I have been receiving unhealthy criticism from peers and I think it's something I'm struggling to keep inside, I get upset so easily about it all, when I know I should be ignoring it because God will handle and deal with that person later and it is not for me to sort out on my terms. I think we often deal with it publicly by gossiping or telling others etc, but lately I've found a healthy way of doing so, by writing out my thoughts with specific details in a diary or booklet which I make sure I keep away from the worlds peering eyes. It has help me reflect in my actions what I can do better if and when this situation comes up again.
Just some small thoughts for the week...
Besides that life is pretty swell at the moment. I've just redone my room, rearranged all my furniture, got a new drawer cupboard thing with a massive mirror which is awesome!! and I tidied up my cupboards, repainted my room purple with Brad and Miranda helped me draw cool drawings and swirlys around the edges and might I say that it looks mighty fine! LOVE having a purple room haha!! I'm just working on getting purple bed sheets and pillow cases hehe :) pretty exciting stuff.
I've also in the last week been really into making meringues :):) not just any sort, but chocolate with choc chip ones!! Woop I love them, though I don't think I've had that much sugar in a whole week before oops!! haha.. so far since last Wednesday I have managed to make 6 or 7 batches I'm pretty sure haha! They're just so easy to make and taste absolutely amazing!! I'm going to have to find a healthier thing to bake haha!! Maybe lemon curd cake?? haha suggestions anyone?
Anyways I'm off now :) toodles :)
tchan.
