Take The Plank Out Of My Eye First

When my tongue is tempted to carry unkind words or gossip, instead may I use it to bless others and occupy it in prayer.
When thoughts of doubt or unbelief take over my mind,
May I remember that God never lies and His Word is truth.
When I have feelings of anger and unforgivness in my life against another,
May I remember that these feelings are not of God and they undermine my life and my house not those I hold the anger and unforgivness towards.
When I ask my God for forgiveness of my sins that I have committed, may I also ask forgiveness of those that I choose not to remember.
When I get full of pride and my own importance, may I then learn the humility that my God would have me live.
When I learn to live a little by these words, I pray then I will show the love of God in my life.
Matthew 7: 1-5 Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
In His Love
