Today I'm doing plank work. No not the exercise planks (which I despise by the way) but working on the plank in my eye. I'm calling out some of my known to me issues I suffer from. (Impatience, sometimes too critical, quick wit and quick to speak, etc). Plank is defined as 1. a long, flat piece of timber, thicker than a board. In the scripture it refers to a plank in comparison to sawdust. In other words (my words) sawdust gathered together makes a plank. Now if there is a plank in the eye doesn't that mean when a person tried to help with the sawdust we take it personal and then it turns to a plank over time? In 77 days I will be getting married. Marriage is the closest of relationships. It behooves me to get some of this dust out of my eye right now before Isadore has a plank to deal with. As a matter of fact I believe that is likely one of the issues in a Christian marriage. U both have to live a godly life right there in close proximity to each other with dust flying everywhere everyday getting in each other's eyes! Whew.
I know my blog goes to people who I may not know personally but if I know u and I have pointed out a piece of sawdust on/with u, that means I'm giving the green light for u to point out mine. Because if we are mutually picking out dust then no one has to walk around with a plank or in fact walk the plank!
That's what I heard. Be encouraged today and inbox me or reply to me my sawdust so I can sufficiently deal with my own plank! Lol
