What beam? Whose eye? Luke 6:41, 42

Good morning all! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!
  Q1. Do you actually realize how easy it is to be a Christian?  It is the reverse of everything else we do.  Usually we study, then take a test; with Christianity we take the test first (accept Jesus as our saviour), then we study (the Bible).  The easiest thing in life to do, yet the hardest step for many people to take.
    Do you ever look around at others and note their faults?  Glad you are not like them? Well, look at Luke 6:41 & 4241 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
  Wow, does this tell you something?  Oh, no, not at all.  Jesus tells us we should not be so worried about others' sins that we overlook our own.  We often rationalize our sins by pointing out the same mistakes in others.
   What kinds of specks or mote in others' eyes are the easiest for you to criticize?  Remember your own beams or logs when you feel like criticizing, and you may find that you have less to say.
   Verse 42 sums it up quite well:  "42 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye."
  Check out your own mote (beam), take a Jesus pill, and call me in the morning. Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
