Chris.
Sometimes we are too interested in the specks in the eyes of our Brothers and Sisters. It seems, from this Teaching of Jesus, that very many of us have specks in our own eyes which negatively affect the way we look at other people. Jesus Christ says that this is hypocrisy and that we should not do it. We need to deal with our own lives first, then we can see our brothers and sisters in the way that God wants us to see them. There are far too many hurts being given and received because we fail to deal with our own lives.
