Flattering

Job 32:21-22 

21 I will not show partiality to anyone,
nor will I confer a title on any man.
22 for I do not know how to give honorary titles,
if I did, my Creator would quickly do away with me.

Flattering of others can be … easily done away with.

You know it is much easier … to look there for flaws.

With self it’s different … to measure against own standards

Or to what God reveals … as you lick your paws.

Is it a matter of flatter … to think you know another?

Does it bring satisfaction … to think you’re set aside?

To understand guidelines better ... than just live as provided

To step out of yourself … so in others to abide.

When is our time to go away … is it when redeemed?

When is it when we do depart and are seated in heavenly places?

When is it when we die … so we may live forever?

When is it that we know … and gain familiar faces?
