Your speck/my log


Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
Matthew 7:3

Forgive my critical inspection
when I have not done self introspection
You have a problem, that is true
but I fail to see I am a problem to you
I judge you for an irritation
failing to control my agitation
that speck in your eye I magnify
my log goes unidentified

Forgive me Lord for ignoring my sin
while my own brother’s sin I spin
into the worst offense that I can see
I need Your Spirit to chasten me
show me the wrong I do
so I will listen to You

Forgive me brother, too
when I sit in judgment of you
this log must go
so my sin I can know
then we can restore
and find grace once more
