2 Corinthians 10:12 

Limits of Paul’s Authority

12 For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

 

Generalize.

 

When my trust in all diminishes

because only one broke the rules.

In my anger and frustration

I call everyone a fool.

 

I so quickly jump to conclusions

and point a finger at someone.

No proof or facts are needed

as my emotions ramble on.

 

When my honesty is questioned

and my integrity at stake.

Why do my feathers ruffle

and I don’t give them a break?

 

Why do I feel so cheated

when mistakes affect my day?

Could it be that I’m greedy

or is it just the other way?

 

Is it because I need elevation

above others who are just like me?

Does that make me any better

unless others see the best in me?
