Hypocritical

Everyone sins. No doubts, no exceptions, no excuses. EVERYONE does. And I KNOW that I sin. I wish I could say that, that isn't true, but I can't, and I probably won't ever get too. And even though I know that I sin, when I see or hear anyone else sin, I judge them automatically. I am really sad that I do because I know that I am being a hypocrite if I do. After I judge them I yell at myself because I am in to position to, and only God is in that position. It also makes me wonder if people judge me whenever I sin. I don't like the thought of it, so it is kind of a inspiration for me to remember whenever I sin or think about sinning. A few verses from the bible tell about all of this, and I look to these verses as a reminder to myself.

"Do not judge so that you will not receive judgement. 

For in the way you judge, you will receive judgement; and by your standard of measure, it will come back to you in like measure.

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, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is 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 brother's eye."

These verses remind me not to judge others because it is hypocritical to judge others when you yourself should be judged. I suggest that you look back to these verses whenever you catch yourself judging others because they helped me quite a lot.
