Aiming Your Cannon
An officer on the battlefield aimed his cannon toward what he thought was the
distant enemy. Just before he fired, the commander, looking through his field
glasses, shouted, “Your aim seems perfect, but stop! They are not the enemy;
they are our own people.” Did you ever think that when you aim criticism at
God’s people so thoughtlessly, you are actually aiming your cannon at the Lord
of your brethren?
