A Lesson from the Hand

This afternoon, after hanging out with friends I came home to find something missing and knew my parents had been involved. And I became quite upset about it, because it wasn't the first time and I was getting annoyed. Basically I felt that they were taking advantage of me and my resources and it was not ok with me. So the "upset"-ness kept building... And then I thought of the saying about when you're pointing at someone else and blaming them, there is four fingers pointing back at you. That's when it occured to me that when you point blame at others there will always be at least one finger pointing back at you, unless you open your hand in surrender to God. Others may wrong you or I, but are we faultless? Maybe we need to be opening our hands in surrender to God and letting him judge. That is for him to do, not us.
