The Importance of Serious Reflection

James 1:16 says Jesus tells us to "just assume that you don't have a hundred percent vision of why and what this is all about" James 2:17 asks how can he not imply that by saying that you see a speck through a huge beam? How do you know you're not actually just looking at one of the tree rings of the beam that's in your eye? You need to do serious reflection. That seems to me as the first implication. And then the second of course is they actually have a speck. I should just always assume that my own sin and pride and self-worth issues and insecurity are more serious than these other people, John writes.
