AM I NAKED?


"One day he drank some wine he had made, and he became drunk and lay naked inside his tent. Ham, the father of Canaan, saw that his father was naked and went outside and told his brothers."(Gen. 9:21-22,NLT) You may be wondering why we chose this portion of scripture for our devotional today. It is simply because many of us are not being our brother's keeper. Many have been turned intomockers! What do we do when we see a brother being embarrassed? Do we expose him to be subjected to further humiliation or we cover his back? This is not to condone wrong doing. But we are looking at a situation where we can save a brother's face from an impending disgrace; and not necessarily the consequences of their wrong decisions. In church, what do we do when the preacher man makes a slight mistake? In our offices, what do we tell our colleagues when our superiors make a decision and it turns out to be a wrong move? Let us all watch each others back. This is LOVE; for love covers all wrongs. Am I naked? AB@TWD
