YOU CAN SKIP THIS PART(short joke)...SCROLL DOWN FOR NEWS BELOW
A young couple moved into a new neighbourhood. The next morning while eating breakfast, the young woman saw her neighbour through the window hanging the wash outside.
"That laundry is not clean," she said. "She doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap".
Her husband looked on, but remained silent. Every time the neighbour would hang laundry to dry, the young woman would make the same
comments.
About one month later, the woman was surprised to see nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: "Look, she has learnt how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this!"
The husband replied: "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
And so it is with life.
What we see when watching others depends on the purity of the window through which we look.
Easy to discuss other people, their lives and things that don't really concern us.
Yet we tend to forget- our window isn't that clean after all.
Clean up your window with the WORD! (THE TRUTH.)
LORD, please give us the strength, humility and courage that we may work on our faults first rather than seeing the faults in Others and castigating them.
Have a beautiful Week !

Micahel Crowley, Politico: Obama avoids a showdown in Syria
Administration officials game out options to respond to Putin's provocations, but Obama exercises "strategic patience."
As Vladimir Putin takes increasingly provocative actions against U.S. interests in Syria, President Barack Obama is tuning out calls from Republicans and foreign policy heavyweights to punish the Russian president through military or economic measures.
They include a call from Jimmy Carter's former national security adviser to "disarm" Russian assets in Syria if Putin doesn't change his behavior, Republican Sen. Marco Rubio's insistence that conflict with Russia is a risk worth taking in the name of asserting America's goals in Syria, and talk of new sanctions on Moscow.
Obama's team has been gaming out options for responding to Russia, but so far there's no plan to use any of them, even as Putin keeps upping the ante.
WNU editor: According to the above commentary .... Obama is exercising "strategic patience." >From my vantage point the ones who have been exercising "strategic patience" have been the Russians. They have been patient for the past few years as the Middle East unravelled, and with U.S. policy in the region being discredited with the rise of the Islamic State .... coupled with U.S. allies distrustful of the White House (especially after the Iranian nuclear deal) .... the Russians have "strategically" stepped in. A few weeks ago I wrote a commentary that when it comes to the Middle East, all roads now lead to Moscow .... this did not happen overnight .... it happened because Moscow practised "strategic patience", built the proper alliances, lobbied the critical players in the region .... and acted when Syrian President Assad was facing defeat. This Russian policy can still unravel .... the Middle East is a difficult place to succeed .... but for the moment everyone is looking at Moscow on what is going to happen next.
KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......
