I've got a log in my Eye.



"Why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye but don't notice the log in your own eye?" Matthew 7:3 Holman Christian Standard Bible (©2009)

I've always been citing this verse in Matthew. In context it is from Jesus' sermon on the mount. He is talking to the people and the hyprocritical ways of being self-righteous and pointing flaws in others without looking at one's self first.

For me I've always cited: "I'm too busy lumberjacking the forest in my own eye to worry about the speck in my brother's." How about you? What logs, specks, forests are you working on?
