Treasure

We tend to see ourselves through rose-colored glasses. Our faults do not look very big to us because we are used to them. We have lived with them for years. Naturally, then, we attribute the real problem to our mate’s behavior. But Jesus warned us not to judge each other, because the level of criticism we use against others will be used against us—likely by our spouse! He told us to first get the plank out of our own eye. Once we’ve done that, we can see more clearly to help our mate deal with his or her faults.
