Today's gospel was exceptionally meaningful, although i cannot remember what the gospel was, i do remember the homily! Father Gerard was so clear in what he was trying to preach today. I agree totally, that one usually sees another's bad points and not the good points. I do not deny judging a person by appearance. I mean, who does not? Its like when i see someone who is always smiling, and clothes are neat and all, i would say that he or she is a person that can be my friend. Its always like that! I feel bad by judging a book by its cover, i really do! But i am so sure that no one would say that they have never done this before. I, being one who sins, am not in a position to judge others. You know, bitch about them and all. But i guess this is what you call 'human nature'. The gospel said something about taking the plank out of your eyes before helping your brother take the splinter from his eyes. To me, God is trying to tell us that we, ourselves have faults. So who are we to judge and complain about others? None of us, humans, are perfect. If anyone were to complain about others, Jesus is the only one that is fit to do so. Its easy to say all this things, but dont actually mean it. I doubt i would be able to control myself, and stop bitching and complaining about other people,but i will TRY. I am willing to try my best! =)
