Escaping the vicious cycle of judgement

Morning: Psalms 24, 29; Wisdom 7:22 – 8:1; 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17

Evening: Psalms 8, 84; Matthew 7:7-14

A lot of what passes for religion is so busy judging others that it is lost and dizzy within its own vicious cycle of judgement. On Thursday, we read Luke’s words about not judging others; now here they are again from Matthew ... Jesus jokes about not trying to take a speck out of someone else’s eye (that is, not correcting their ideas or actions from your own skewed point of view) when you have a plank or a log in your own eye! To clear your vision and free yourself of prejudice ... rely on the Spirit.
