Jesus is Calling Me a Hypocrite!

Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother’s eye.  (Luke 6;41-43, NASB)

I have a problem!  I often judge people when I’m guilty of the exact same sins! 

Every morning I confess my sins that I know about to my Abba Father.  I confess that I’m guilty of judging others while being guilty myself.  Jesus says that this is hypocrisy.  I don’t want to be a hypocrite.

I then ask the Holy Spirit for help.  He is my Helper!  I ask Him to help me not to judge other people, as I have enough problems of my own.  My sins are countless, and I need His help to correct them, and to be my Conscience throughout the day to help me not to repeat them. 

I am a hypocrite.  That’s why I need Jesus in my life!
