Jesus offers the “Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector” (Luke 18:9-14) for those who trust in themselves that they are righteous and regard others with contempt. This parable invites us to ask - Who are we trusting to make us righteous? Are we self-righteous and disdainful of those who don’t meet our moral standards? Are we aware of God’s mercy in our lives and ready to share that mercy to others?
