It is easy for me to be critical and to judge others. Life would be so easy if everyone would just think and act like me (that's a joke folks). I think I need to try to understand where people are coming from more so than I do now and be more caring and humble in how I approach others who disagree with me, my beliefs, and my opinions. Who knows, I might learn something in the process and I might just be more pleasant to be around.
Matthew 7:1-6:
1. Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. 2. For you will be treated as you treat others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged.
3. And why worry about a speck in your friend’s eye when you have a log in your own? 4. How can you think of saying to your friend, ‘Let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,’ when you can’t see past the log in your own eye? 5. Hypocrite! First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend’s eye.
6. Don’t waste what is holy on people who are unholy. Don’t throw your pearls to pigs! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you.
