Whenever we encounter the word `hypocrite’ we often are challenged to
examine ourselves, mainly because we do not want to be hypocrites. We
are concerned about our external image, about what others will say of
us, about our skeletons in our closets. We tend to hide the dark side
of our lives, we sweep our dirt under the rug. Christ calls us to be
REAL loving and caring persons, not in a mediocre way but in an
uncompromising real way – HIS WAY. Are we willing to strip off our
hypocrisy, be sincere in our hearts, and love as he loves?

Lord, teach our hearts to become like yours that we may love the way
you love.
