Evening: Psalm 119:25-48; Amos 8:1-14; John 7:53-8:11
“People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones” was a common saying in my childhood family. We all live in ‘glass houses’ … none of us is perfect. The woman ‘caught in adultery’ is a case in point. When Jesus says, “Let the one who is without sin cast the first stone”, he rejects the thought that some might be more or less perfect than others. We all make mistakes, therefore we all owe mercy to one another and deserve mercy from one another. We also owe it to ourselves and to one another to try to do better.
