When we genuinely believe that inner transformation is God’s work and not ours, we can put to rest our passion to set others straight.
From Isaiah 55:8-9: “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
Richard J. Foster (born 1942) is an American author and Christian theologian.
When we try to straighten out the lives of others, we are stepping into the role of the Holy Spirit. Not my monkey, not my circus.
