John 5:7 ” ‘Sir,’ the invalid replied, ‘I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.’ “

Something bad happens to us… what’s the first thing we usually do?  We blame someone or thing for it.  Blaming others rather than taking responsibility for the circumstances we find ourselves in is something we do rather well.  I remember a saying that was popular years ago…”The devil made me do it!”  No, the devil didn’t make you do anything…it’s all on you.
