Don't be a Fault Finder

Matthew 12:1 At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. And His disciples were hungry, and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat. 2 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to Him, “Look, Your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath!” 

Often, if not always, when I am a fault finder, I'm in the wrong.  We often use the cloak of doing the right thing to justify our judgmental attitudes.  Christians are not exempt from doing this but are often the worse offenders.  Make sure thats not you.  The Pharisee's did not know what they were talking about and assumed superiority over God.  What is it we seek to accomplish by seeking fault in others?  If I would spend more time evaluating my own life, fixing my own issues, I wont have much time to judge others.  However, if I seek to build myself up that results in taring others down in order to do so.  There are things we must address in others for sure yet those are to be done in a attitude of grace & love.
