“Why do you see the tiny speck in your friend’s eye but don’t notice the big stick in your own?”
— Matthew 7:3 (Paraphrased)
🪵 Look in the Mirror First
Sometimes we tell others what they did wrong, but forget we make mistakes too. Jesus wants us to check our hearts first before pointing out what others need to fix.
When we’re honest about our mess-ups, it’s easier to be kind and help others grow too.
🕊 Then and Now
Even little kids who followed Jesus wanted to live clean and honest lives. You can do that too!
💡 Think About It:
- Have you ever told someone what they did wrong—but forgot what you did?
- How can you say sorry when you mess up?
✨ Let’s Pray:
Jesus, help me see my own mistakes. Teach me to be kind, even when others mess up. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
