Focus on yourself!

“Why do you see the speck that is in your neighbor’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?”-Matthew 7:3

Often times we as humans tend to look at other peoples shortcomings rather than tend to and fix the things going wrong with our lives. I guess it’s a lot easier to point out whats wrong with others because we don’t have to fix their problems… we simply just point them out and move on to the next person. Don’t get me wrong, I sometimes find myself doing this as well … I talk about others and look at their short comings so it makes mine seem much better than theirs. As I started to realize I did this I started taking more self inventory on my life and realized some of the things I needed to work on. Self inventory is not an easy task… I began to see things about myself I never really noticed! I was like damn, I really need to get my life together! I started to see that the more I focused on the things I needed to work on… the less time I spent looking at other people’s lives and mistakes! Self inventory allows us to take a deeper look at our self and see what it is that makes us look, feel, talk, and even act the way we do. Self inventory makes you comfortable enough with yourself that when other people begin to “tell you” what’s wrong with you, you’ve already assessed yourself so much that what they say doesn’t even bother you! It’s been working great for me and I pray that God continues to work in each and every one of us!
