The splinter in your eye by -Marizelle- 2012/11/14 15:35
Think yourself in the following situation: There's a splinter in your eye. You go to an eye specialist but the eye specialist is blind. Will you allow him to work on your eye? A blind eye specialist, doctor your healthy eyes? Never! Nobody will allow it. Your eyes are too precious. This is the image that we have in our scripture reading. We have a beam in our own eyes, in other words, our own sins and transgressions is so much, but we do not see, we are blind to our own sins and mistakes, and now we criticize others who just had a small splinter in their eyes, we want another person to operate, which may be much less sin than is already. It has become fashionable to criticize today. That's the problem. Each of us, in his own eyes,is the most fair man. Each of us think that everything I think and say and do is right. Therefore we gives ourselves the right to criticize and judge others. Rebuke your brother ... not as an enemy, not your adversary, not judgmental, but as a doctor with great seriousness and dedication medicine.
