Pastor Dominic Yeo spoke about aligning our perspectives today.
Matthew 7: 3-5
Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 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.
What are the planks that have blurred your perspective causing you to be a "Fault Finder"?
- Jealousy (inability to handle other people's success)
- Insecurities (insatiable need to always be right and to win even when at fault)
- Inferiority (always manifest in a state of superiority, eg, always knowing so and so important and making sure others know about it)
How can we remove the planks so that we have the right perspectives?
- Honest Evaluation
- Ask God to help you remove the plank
How can we have the right perspective to remove the specks in others?
- Be secure in God
- Be motivated to build people
