What is the purpose and intent of our heart in judging others. We judge people all the time for their actions, attitudes, perceived intent, circumstances, etc\u2026 It is so easy to do. Do we do it to sound pious, intelligent, upright, or somehow above or better than them? Maybe it is a combination of all of these reasons why, but for sure this is a slippery slope to jump on. Pretty soon the lens we view the world through becomes a method to finger point judgement at others. \u00a0 We are never looking through the lens of mercy and grace, or how can I help make a difference.\u00a0Leave the judging up to God. \u00a0Today, try to\u00a0become a more humble servant able to be used by Him. \u00a0Can you imagine the day we would have if we would say “God open my eyes and heart to see people through your Love, Mercy, and Grace.<\/p>\n
Matthew 7:1
\n\u201cJudge 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. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye<\/p>\n
Romans 2:1
\nTherefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things<\/p>\n
14:10
\nWhy do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written,
\n\u201cAs I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me,
\nand every tongue shall confess to God.\u201d
\nSo then each of us will give an account of himself to God<\/p>\n
James 4:11
\nThere is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
