Sanctimonious

Holier-than-thou?
Only God can rightly judge—
Who is self-righteous?

What irks me Dane Ann is that these are the same ones who call themselves by His name!!! Always judging, always belittling others! They foreget that it is only by his mercy and grace we're not in someone else's shoes.. What arrogance!! I believe that if Jesus stood here today, many of us wouldn't know him!!! Sorry, but I am sooo angry. ...I sent you a SM that didn't get through because I wanted to ask about Colleen. Have you heard from her? Do you have her e-mail? God bless and peace, Audrey
