Daily Wisdom: Matthew 7:4-5

Friday, November 26, 1948

How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
— Matthew 7:4-5
