GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA GANG!!!
Guys, this morning scripture really burdened my heart. It convicted me a lot, because I have this very strong tendency to let my supercritical, hypocritical, pharisaical, self-righteous, judgmental side come out, and I've had to ask God to forgive me of it so many times I've lost count. When I read this passage of scripture, and see in my mind this scene in which this poor woman is being put through this nightmare, at the hands of the Pharisees and scribes, today I saw myself as one of those Pharisees and scribes! That's why I went to God in tears today asking his forgiveness for being that way, and asking God to show me how to extend His love, compassion, dignity, grace, and mercy to everyone I encounter.

I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will challenge and convict you to not be like those Pharisees and scribes. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn for yourselves how not only important it is, but also how to show God's love and grace to everyone, and I mean everyone! 😊

So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight I want to leave you with these questions from this morning's devotional, and I pray that they challenge you to want to show love, compassion, and mercy to others. Most of all, I pray that they will give you a strong desire and motivation to extend dignity and forgiveness to others too.

How will you react when you see someone who’s living a hard lifestyle?

Who can you invite to church this week and how might you get them to come?

My prayer for all of you tonight, is that you carefully examine your hearts and ask God is there any area of your life where you’re being self-righteous, pharisaical, and judgmental to another person, confess it, repent of it, and forsake it! Ask God to change your heart towards this person, give you the compassion needed towards this person, and learn to love them as He does. You’ll be surprised at what God shows you! Ask God to help you see those “undesirable” people with His eyes and ask Him to open up your heart to them, just like Maggie Does. Ask God to give you a heart of compassion for all who are lost, befriend them, and share the gospel with them, because who knows they may come to know Christ because of your Christ like attitude!
