Unwashed Hands

I have a hard time with someone fixing food for me that hasn't washed their hands to the point of real attitude problems.  "Grrrrr" in my mind, "how nasty" under my breath.  Who knows where their hands have been?
Then I realized I needed some help.  I prayed about it.  As I opened my Bible, I asked God to show me what to read.  I opened my Bible at random and opened to Jesus saying that eating with unwashed hands doesn't defile a man. But what comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and they defile a man.
I took that to say that my grumbling about unwashed hands is far worse than eating with unwashed hands.

Matthew 15:16-20
