Sunday, February 20: Scripture – Luke 6:39-42
39 He also told them a parable: “Can a blind person guide a blind person? Will not both fall into a pit?
40 A disciple is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully qualified will be like the teacher.
41 Why do you see the speck in your neighbor’s eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye?
42 Or how can you say to your neighbor, ‘Friend, let me take out the speck in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your neighbor’s eye.
Prayer Focus: To see clearly, we need to remove the log out of our own eye. The text does not indicate that everyone is perfect or that others have nothing on which to improve. No, it indicates that if all are going to grow in the way of the teacher, then we each need to begin with ourselves. Pray that you might begin with “you” today. God loves you! Pray that you might get the log out of your eye which prevents you from seeing and knowing that good news.
