I feel like the words in this chapter are the words I have heard over and over. Nothing new comes to me, but I am reminded of the extremely challenging rules that Jesus lays out for everyone. AND should you follow these rules of doing well unto others regardless of what they may have done or think of you you need to watch out for "Woe to you when all speak well of you..." 6:26. Can we do anything right?
I like Kelly's point about the perspective of Americans, we may be the perfect example of ones that "do not notice the log in your own eye" (6:41). We are very prosperous and could be a beacon of responsibility in this world. Yet, our education system is poor, we are extremely self centered, and I, for one, would rather blog about it than change it! From the looks of it, the U.S. seems built on a rock, but perhaps our foundation isn't as strong as we think. Hmm, what to do...
