Matthew 7:1-5 NRSVue
1“Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. 2For the judgment you give will be the judgment you get, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. 3Why do you see the speck in your neighbor’s eye but do not notice the log in your own eye? 4Or how can you say to your neighbor, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while the log is in your own eye? 5You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your neighbor’s eye.

Reflection
Matthew’s list of wisdom sayings: just take the line "Take the log out of your own eye" and concentrate on
that. And ask: is this true for me?
