Psalm 11:5
Psalm 11:5
The Lord examines the righteous, but the wicked, those who love violence, he hates with a passion.
The insight that intentions matter as much as actions encourages us to live with sincerity and integrity. This inspiration calls us to examine our hearts, understanding that while our deeds may be visible to others, it is our motives that truly define us. This perspective invites us to act with kindness, to align our outward behavior with a genuine desire to do good, and to resist the temptation to act out of selfish ambition. By focusing on purity of heart, we foster a life of honesty and transparency. Let us be mindful of our intentions, ensuring that they reflect love, humility, and respect. Living in this way not only strengthens our relationships but also builds a community of trust and understanding. May we be inspired to cultivate a heart that seeks to uplift others, living with a consistency that inspires confidence in those around us. Let this dedication to integrity guide us in every choice, building a legacy that is genuine and impactful.
Luke 6:41
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
1 Corinthians 11:31
For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged.
Romans 14:10
Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment.
James 4:11
Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
