DON’T TRY SO HARD TO BE HOLY AND FORGET TO BE HUMAN’

DON’T TRY SO HARD TO BE HOLY, AND FORGET TO BE HUMAN (Matthew 5:36-37)

Holy is a derivative of the word “Whole.” Being “ONE-WHOLE” or HOLY means:

• Displaying INTEGRITY in all dealings with fellow humans
• Being SOUND in mind, thought, and deed
• Consistency in character, even when no one is looking

To be holy is to be authentic, not perfect.

• Do not pretend or act to impress others
• Seek help when needed
• Only offer assistance if you have the means and intention to help
• Avoid swearing to affirm intentions

AS JESUS TAUGHT: “Let your ‘YES’ be ‘YES,’ and your ‘NO,’ ‘NO.’ For whatever is more than these comes from the evil one.” (Matthew 5:37)
