Brothers and sisters, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against a brother or sister[d] or judges them speaks against the law and judges it.

James 4

Brothers and sisters, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against a brother or sister or judges them speaks against the law and judges it. v11

We are told that we are to love others as Jesus loves us - and so this goes without saying - we are not to judge our brothers and sisters.

My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are an awesome God full of love, mercy, compassion, etc. for me even though You know everything about me, including my sin.  You are so patient!  Thank You Jesus!  Please forgive me for me lack of action - You call me to action and many times I am not in action - please forgive me!  Help me turn from my sin and towards You.  Help me love others as You do.  Help me grow in my faith.  Give me strength.  Give Lisa comfort and strength as she recovers from this surgery.  Praise God for the successful surgery yesterday - You are awesome God!  Please heal and cure Lisa (quickly!) of this cancer and its side effects from the medication.  Help me lead and serve Lisa, Zach and Dustin.  Help me be in action. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
