Change

Nagging is really a bad tool to employ when it comes to changing a person's character, because it blinds ones eye to the other person good attributes, while all we see is the person's bad aspects, it also makes us overlook our own bad attributes and we see ourselves as perfect and without fault.
I have seen men nag in a serious way on a partners issues, and I have seen women take to nagging like its an everyday job to render their displeasure, with both hoping it will change the other.
But do we know that prayer can change a person faster than nagging.
Do we know that while employing prayer as a tool it also help to change ourselves too.
Do we even know that nagging is a device of Satan which he ignites like fire to keep up argument and when the fire of nagging is still burning we can never see the good in what the other person does.
 So while that nagging fire is still in us, we become the most difficult person to cope with or even change while we think its the other person...
Lets quench the fire of nagging that the devil has started first and we will realize that we can only change the other person by first changing our self because the easiest person a man can change is himself and when prayer makes one change in aspects that matters most, the change we desire to see in that other person too will be effected in no time, and do we also know that nagging is the attribute of an hypocrite. The bible says “Why do you notice the small piece of dust that is in your friend’s eye, but you don’t notice the big piece of wood that is in your own? Why do you say to your friend, ‘Let me take that piece of dust out of your eye’? Look at yourself first! You still have that big piece of wood in your own eye. You are a hypocrite! First, take the wood out of your own eye. Then you will see clearly to get the dust out of your friend’s eye. Matthew 7:3-5 ERV.
So to change that other person we must first change ourselves, and the only way we can change ourselves is to take up prayer in place of nagging... God bless us all
