The Daily Breadcrumb

”The Bible is meant to be bread for daily use, not cake for special occasions.”

Think Harder before looking down on someone.

The razor blade is sharp but can’t a tree, the axe is strong but can’t cut the hair. Everyone is important according to his/her own unique purpose… Never look down on anyone unless you are admiring their shoes…

  • Philippians 2:3 – “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.”
  • Luke 18:9-14 – “To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable: ‘Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, evildoers, adulterers — or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.’ ‘But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’ ‘I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

We are not called by God to judge our brothers and sisters in Christ. We are call to love and show kindness to everyone we meet.
