How in the world did my life get so out of balance?
I know many of you are asking yourself that question and some of you may not
even be aware that we all get out of
balance in something!
Eating too much, too many sexual partners (uh oh, did
I go there?), drinking too much, and I’m going to even mention exercising too
much. Yes our body needs exercise, and it’s a necessity to do so! Whereas,
giving your muscles and your heart rest allows the oxygen to flow better in the
body and increase muscle mass, instead of strains and burn out ~ which leads to
giving up - - - - - and again being out of balance! One minute you’re up WHEE ~ and the
next you’re down~ UGH!

I know I can look at someone else and see
immediately what is causing them to be out of balance; however, I don’t see my
own iniquities and many times can regress into a situation instead of making
progress!Can it be we are in denial, or truly feel we are OK?
When we are out of balance, our life, our home, our family, our health, our friendships,
our finances, our work ethics, and even our spiritual growth are out of balance
also! Say what you will, however, we have
to truly assess ourselves and work on us before we assess and start critiquing
others of their faults. When people see a change for the better in us, they
notice and want a change for themselves!
For
with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to
you. Why do you see the speck that is in your
brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me
take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye?
Matthew 7:2-4 ESV
