And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Philippians 4:8 - NLT

My Favourite Chapters Mathew 5- 7 (Golden Chapters) 

Matt 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Many leaders and people find it easy to blame and judge others easily. They don't even think about their own shortcomings and own faults. I wonder why people don't examine themselves first before harshly passing on judgement on others. Don't they realize that God is watching and knows every heart's intentions. 

Judgement often comes out from the heart that is lacking in love.

In this verse the Beam that Jesus is referring to is our own big blind spots where we can not see and judge appropriately. Without removing the beam first from our own eyes we are not supposed to judge anyone.

Actually Jesus begins his message with saying judge not and if we judge then we will be judged in the same manner.

We need to understand; we are what we are today because of God's grace and it's not our own righteousness, but His grace alone. His grace has been rendered to you so that you judge not others but release grace to others.

We all are condemned before God but only God's love and grace is making difference in our lives.

Thank you Jesus for your grace.
