You just take care of your own game...you've got enough there to keep you busy!

Ever suffer from foot in mouth disease? I do. I sometimes just don't know when to shut up. Recently, I have had 2 interactions with people that I felt the need to take down a notch or two basically. Not my place, not at God's direction, just my own flesh. Reality is, I have enough going on in my own life and have no need to try to direct traffic in someone else's. I need to try to focus on my own game...there is enough there to keep me very busy. Neither of these situations will likely resolve. I appologized to one, the other one I am just leaving alone. Sorry doesn't take back the hurt or erase the messiness, I know that.

God, please remind me that my life is yours and it should be focused on You, not the short comings of others. I need to let you handle those. You have blessed our family in so many ways, I wouldn't want to do anything that would jepordize that by my disobedience. "Create in me a pure heart" is my prayer this morning. God, please put my blinders on so that I can focus on the path you've set before me. My flesh and my tounge are dangerous when allowed to wander about on their own. I am submitting myself to You for Your leadership once again. Keep me in check.
