Reading: Matthew 7:1-5
Devotional: Jesus doesn't forbid all judgment—He forbids hypocritical judgment. Before we examine the speck in our brother's eye, we must deal with the log in our own. This isn't about ignoring sin; it's about approaching others with humility and self-awareness. When we recognize our own desperate need for grace, we become gentle restorers rather than harsh critics. The same standard we apply to others will be applied to us. Are you quick to excuse your own failings while condemning others for similar struggles? Today, ask God to reveal the "logs" you've ignored in your own life. True discernment begins with honest self-examination and repentance.
