The big hypocrite

Matthew 6:16
New International Version (NIV)
Fasting

16 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.


Yeah. This week- this verse applies to me. The big hypocrite. I'm grumpy, irritable and just not a happy person. I can't tell if this I because I'm PMS-y, the world is going to hockeysticks in a hand basket and its downright depressing, or if I'm stinking irritated and lonely from lack of social interaction. Any whichwayyoucutit, I'm upset at my attitude right now.

I have tears in my heart and lump in my throat because of Boston, and closer to my heart- West Texas. This hurts my heart especially as the sister of a Chief volunteer fireman. A public servant his whole adult life- I know that he would swoop in on a seconds notice just the way those first responders did, and so- these deaths hurt me. Lord help us all. Prayers for West Texas and Boston.
