  Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie, and it's time for us to
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: go to God in prayer, and as always, I ask
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: that you join along with me in prayer. You know,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Pastor Reginald Sharp was ministering and teaching talking about that
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: man in the mirror instead of the one out, the
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: one to child. That was awesome. That's what I want
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: to pray about on today, taking that personal accountability and
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: growth and humility before God before you judge somebody else. Heavenly, Father,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: in the name of Jesus, we come before you today humboldt,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: knowing that too often, God, we're quick to look out
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: the window at others while neglecting to look honestly in
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: the mirror at ourselves. Lord, your word tells us in
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Matthew seven, to first take the beam out of our
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: own eye before we try to remove the speck from
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: our brothers. I so today, Father, we ask you to
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: help us turn our gaze inward, to allow the Holy
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Spirit to search our hearts and reveal what needs to
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: be revealed, corrected, and renewed. Lord, forgive us for the
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: times we've judged others more harshly than we judge ourselves.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Forgive us for pointing fingers at the faults of others,
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: while ignoring our own attitudes, our own habits, our own sins.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Teach us to stand before the mirror of your word
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: with honesty and humility, letting it reflect back the truth
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: of who we are and who you are calling us
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: to be. Father, give us the courage to face the
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: parts of ourselves that we would rather hide. Replace pride
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: God with humility, resentment with forgiveness, and anger with gentleness,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: and selfishness with love. Let the fruit of the spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: and self control become visible in our lives than when
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: others see us, God, they see you, Lord, help us
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: to be less concerned with fixing others and more concerned
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: with being transformed by your spirit. God, let us live
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: as examples, not critics, as encourage us, not accuse us,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: as peacemakers and not troublemakers. And as you change us
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: from the inside out, God, let that transformation ripple outward
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: into our families, into our communities. In every relationship that
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: we touch, Father, we declare today we will not live
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: with a critical spirit. We will not be consumed with judgment. Instead,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: we will focus on the man or the woman in
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the mirror, surrendering daily to the refining power of the
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit. God, we will live to please you, and
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: by your grace, God, we will become who you've called
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: us to be. Lord. We thank you that you our
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: patient with us, molding us, shaping us, and growing us
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: day by day. God, let us walk home belated with you,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: always remembering that true change begins not with the window,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: but with the mirror. In Jesus' name, Amen,
