A Lesson in Abundance
All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.—Luke 21:4 (NIV)
“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce, you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.”—Matthew 7:1 ESV
Jesus speaks against judging someone while overlooking your own faults. Instead of criticizing another, explore your motivation. Are you being helpful or hurtful? The Bible tells us only God is able to judge someone’s heart.
Heavenly Father, help me to steer away from judgement. Help me to love with my whole heart.

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.—James 1:17 (NIV)

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.—Hebrews 4:12 (NIV)
