It all happened so fast. I saw something vulgar and my immediate thought was disgust for the morality of "those people." God's reply to me came swiftly and decisively.
It was just minutes after I had that thought, that I turned on the radio in my car and heard a very brief monologue. The speaker said that when we have thoughts of disdain for sinners, we must remember that we were once one of them and it is only by God's grace that we have been saved.
Ouch.
Forgive us our sins as we forgive others.
Thank you Father, for this gentle, but firm reminder.
