Condemning myself

I am frustrated by this wicked world. I am angry at the incompetence, apathy and arrogance that I see around me. What drives me over the edge is when people hurt others because of their own laziness and abuse of power. Then I read Romans 2:1, “You who judge others do the very same things.” I am broken. What right do I have to rail against the ills of humanity when I contribute to them? Lord, forgive me. Help me to love those who hurt me just as you love me when I hurt you (Rom 5:8). Remove my anger and replace it with your Spirit. Renew a right spirit within me (Psa 51).
