Because David's heart smote him, Saul's wrath never did.
For David's wrath was directed against himself -
while Saul's was directed against everyone else.
It is our own hearts we should critique,
not our brother's or our sister's iniquity.
For if we'll keep a sharp eye out for our own sin,
not another's,
we'll safely remain under
The Lord's protective cover:
The blood He shed
for the wicked and the dead,
Let us now remember
what the Lord said -
" And why do you behold the mote that is in your brother's eye, but consider not the beam that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first cast out the beam that is in your own eye - then shall you see clearly to cast out the mote out of your brother's eye"
