“If you have so many defects, why are you
surprised to find defects in others?”Saint
Jose Maria Escriva.
We all may be in prayers but we are having many
defects which we have to rectify through the Word of God. Our defects may be in
form of anger, jealousy, hatredness, doubt, fear, arrogance, pride, lust,
slander, greed, craving for name, fame, power, negative thinking, sorrows, insecurity,
confusion, rash decision, hypocrisy
and so on.
Our defects can be mild or grave, if it is mild it’s
easy to change ourselves but if it is grave then we will struggle for months
and years to get out of it and in some case it will be till the end of their
life.
We have to understand the reason for our defects
and the reason we are not able to overcome it from our life.
Chasing the desires of the flesh and also because
of accepting the lies and deceit of the devil is the main reason for our
defects. The reason we are not able to overcome is because we have not been
able to identify it and sometimes we have tried to identify but some
distraction came from the devil which made us go in different direction leaving
it unattended.
Most of us fail to identify defects in our life but
will be more interested to find out defect in others life and also we will not
hesitate to correct that person sometimes kindly but most of the times rudely
by shouting. We have to understand that without correcting ourselves, we should
not try to correct others and also if we have defects then we have to
understand that others are also having the same.
Let us be serious in identifying our defects and
correcting it so that we may not perish to hell but by correcting it let us
walk towards the path which is leading to heaven.
No matter if we put a veil and act as holy in front
of others still God knows what we are because His eyes are 10,000 times brighter
than the sun and He will see every hidden corners of our heart and He has knowledge
of everything inside of us which we also do not know.
