From Morning Prayer:

 

Saint John Chrysostom, Bishop and Doctor

 

 

Jesus told his disciples a parable: 

 

"Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit? ...

 

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, 'Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,' when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye?

 

You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye."

 

(from the Gospel of Lk. 6: 39–42)

 

I pray that this text finds you with mercy and forgiveness.

 

I pray that we may all have had a day of getting the logs out of our own eyes.

 

Please pray for all those listed in all the parts of the litany from last Monday (Part 1)(Part 2)(Part 3)(Part 4).

 

Simplicity, Humility, and Praise  🙏 ✌️
