Identify with failures in others by listing yours.
If you have an offense against me, do you know you can't repent of my sin? You can only plead your own personal pardon at the throne of God.

Everyone of you got to where you are because someone influenced you.
God... Please keep my eyes focused on the only target worth hitting - Christlikeness!
The godly are not exempt from trouble but are preserved in it.
