We will never be cleansed until we confess we are dirty. And we will never be able to wash the feet of those who have hurt us until we allow Jesus, the one we have hurt, to wash ours.

God is not troubled by one who is conservative or liberal, and He certainly never inclines His ear toward a donkey or an elephant.
