self-unaware

How many of us truly see ourselves are we really are?

A few days ago, we had one of those moments when both Caden and Alyssa were bawling (for some, by now, forgotten reason). Alyssa, through her tears, yelled, "stop crying Caden!" It seemed that she thought he shouldn't be crying after what had happend, but that her tears were legitimate. Or did she not realize that she was crying as well?

I recall a pastor talking about how we all have blind spots. Something about ourselves that we're unaware of. A critical attitude, lack of grace for others, or maybe just dirty fingernails!
Ask God to show you what yours is. Or, if you're really brave, ask a friend what yours is. :)
