let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.

But I say, if you are even angry with someone,5:22a Some manuscripts add without cause. you are subject to judgment! If you call someone an idiot,5:22b Greek uses an Aramaic term of contempt: If you say to your brother, ‘Raca.’ you are in danger of being brought before the court. And if you curse someone,5:22c Greek if you say, ‘You fool.’ you are in danger of the fires of hell.

Lord God my Father,
I pray your will to overwhelm me and for the removal of my sinful way so your actions will flow thru me in body and mind. Your will be done.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
