Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. For with the judgement, you make will be judged, and the measure you get. Why do you see the speck in your neighbor's eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye? Matthew 7:1-3
Recently I was asked in Bible Study what do you need to work on in your life? I said judging others and situations. In this scripture, Jesus teaches about judging others. Jesus says do not judge. If you judge others in your head, or talking to others, you will be judged. Jesus says why do you see the speck (a blemish or something you find objectionable) in your neighbor's eye but do not see the log in your own eye? Do we judge to build ourselves up? I am making an effort not to judge others and/or situations and to make an effort to build up others.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, be my constant reminder not to judge others and to build up others. Amen
