This week’s theme video is about Wisdom in Relationships, explaining Jesus’ teachings in Matthew 7:1-12 about not judging others, throwing pearls to pigs, and dealing with the plank in your eye. Consider this:

• You have timed the traffic stoplight and know you have a good chance of finally making it through the light. Instead you allow a person on the side street to enter traffic ahead of you. They wave and are grateful. You’re grateful too -- while you sit idly for 2 more minutes (and possibly praying).
  
• A snide remark pops into your mind that would put a fellow coworker in a poor light, but you pause just enough to weigh the negative impact of your quick wit and hold your tongue. You overcome the temptation and smile with the Lord rather than with your fellow employees.

This week we are reminded that disciples follow the Golden Rule. It is a basic way to love your neighbor as you love yourself. It is faith expressing itself in love, as Paul says in Galatians 5:6. Many opportunities for sharing your faith arise because of the way that we live, such as determining which actions you follow through with and which actions you hold back on; which thoughts you allow expression and which thoughts you withhold for the sake of others.
