Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Matthew 5:14.
The other day I was on the bus. I heard one woman start judging another woman and at first I was tempted to judge her. But wait a minute! Who am I to judge her. Didn't I just have a situation where I was in an argument with someone and I started pointing the finger at them?
Fortunately, I had on my Crossfires and I managed to dodge the friendly fire.
I turned to the lady and introduced myself. I told her I was in the organic hog farm business. Thus began a delightful conversation.
Rather than becoming an agitator I stepped in and became part of the solution.
Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. Matthew 7:6.
