Evening: Psalm 78:40-72; John 7:53-8:11
“People living in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.” Growing up, it gradually dawned on me what this meant … You may build a protective shell around yourself to hide the truth about you, but it is as fragile as glass. As soon as you judge someone else, your protective shell shatters and the lies you have told yourself about your own innocence are exposed. Jesus’ teaching is consistent - your judgments of others point back at you. Stones you throw at others land on you. All of us have already fallen far short of the perfection we sometimes pretend.
