Jesus forbids hypocritical and self-righteous judgment, not humble moral discernment or loving correction governed by Scripture.

Romans 8:28 promises that God works through all things for the final good of conforming His people to Christ, not that every event feels good.

Philippians 4:13 teaches contentment through Christ in plenty or need, not unlimited ability to accomplish any ambition.

Jeremiah 29:11 promised exiled Judah that God had not abandoned His covenant purposes; it is not a blank check for immediate personal success.
