Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for
the interests of others.
Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will
see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
Philippians 2:4
Matthew 7:5
Jesus teaches us to be kind to one
another and to love our neighbour as we love ourselves. We need to be
compassionate one to another in order to experience the benefit of God’s
compassion toward us. While we should be concerned for believers’ interests we
are not to interfere in their business.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer
for yourself:
Abba Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings
and love. Lord, teach me, strengthen and guide me, to care about others as much
as I care about myself. Help me to esteem others and look
upon and be concerned for their interests. Give me wisdom to
give them advice and humility to not insist that they follow my advice or be
offended if they do not follow it. Lord, give me insight and self-awareness to
be able to see my own defects and grant me kindness to make allowances for
their defects. Lord strip me from any pride that may be hindering me from
carrying out your commandments.
In Jesus’ name I pray. To Him be the power, the
glory and the dominion forever and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Jesus loves you
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
