I am here again my steemit family and how has been your days on steemit? Its been a wonderful experience for me here and I am sure it is thesame for all of us here.

I sat where an event occured and it brought a flash of topic to my mind, which is "A Pot Calling Kettle Black". In our everyday life/activities, we come across people who claims to have an attitude near perfection and in turns thinks others are filthy rags whereas deeply within, they were either as bad as those they correct or even worse in character.

There were two brothers in the past, one is named Alexander while the other is Vincent. Alexander was a great womaniser and Vincent a gospel preacher who always preach to Alexander to depart from his evil ways. Vincent was always indoor fasting and praying; a talk of the street young man of God.
Helen, a promising young lady, the daughter of a family friend moved in with them to complete her education due to relocation of her family to another state, and everything was working fine.

Alexander continued in his womanising life and he's doing doing it with passion but brother Vincent also was serving his God and with passion too while Helen was working hard to excel in her studies so she could later reunite with her family after her education.

Helen became pregnant of a child and there was a ruse leading to rancour in the family. Everyone suspected Alexander to be responsible for the pregnancy. No one wanted to defend Alexander, even his numerous girlfriends never believed him.

But eventually........ Helen confessed and to everyone's utmost surprise. Vincent the holy one was the culprit. Alexander almost laughed his eyes out. Disappointment rented the air and shame covered brother Vincent the preacher.

A portion of the bible in Mathew 7:4-5 (KJV) says; 4. Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

  1. Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

NOTE: Before judging others, let's all look inward and stop being judgemental in nature. Thanks

God accept and forgives, so when we go wrong we should not give excuses but rather accept it

You're absolutely right @bigssam
