A young couple moved into a new neighbourhood. The next morning while eating breakfast, the young woman saw her neighbour through the window hanging the wash outside.
"That laundry is not clean," she said. "She doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap".
Her husband looked on, but remained silent. Every time the neighbour would hang laundry to dry, the young woman would make the same
comments.
About one month later, the woman was surprised to see nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: "Look, she has learnt how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this!"
The husband replied: "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
And so it is with life.
What we see when watching others depends on the purity of the window through which we look.
Easy to discuss other people, their lives and things that don't really concern us.
Yet we tend to forget- our window isn't that clean after all.
Clean up your window with the WORD! (THE TRUTH.)
LORD, please give us the strength, humility and courage that we may work on our faults first rather than seeing the faults in Others and castigating them.
Have a beautiful Week !

NOW THE NEWS IN FULL.....
The Pentagon's overhaul of how it counters the Islamic State militant group in Syria could create at least one clear winner: the Kurdish groups there who have engaged in heavy combat against the Islamic State for months.
As U.S. officials explained on Friday how they will scale back and alter the Pentagon's maligned $500 million train-and-equip program, they cited the success, largely attributed to the Kurds, in taking back the Syrian border town of Kobane last year from militants. The Pentagon's effort has so far focused on establishing a Syrian rebel force to counter the Islamic State, but will be adapted to instead aid existing groups like the Kurds who are already doing so.
The change in strategy will not focus exclusively on arming Kurds, but they stand to benefit from the decision in Syria. To date, Washington has hesitated to hand equipment directly to the Kurds. Instead, they send them through the central government of Iraq, in part because of concerns in Baghdad that the Kurds want to break away and start their own country.
Update: U.S. will stop training Syrian rebels and focus on arming Kurds and other groups -- L.A. Times
WNU Editor: Talk about timing with this U.S. announcement .... it only happened after this Kurdish leader said the following .... Syrian Kurdish Leader: Moscow Wants to Work With Us (Al-Monitor). On a side note .... Turkey is not going to be happy.
KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......
