Jesus said, do not judge so that you will not be judged.
God is trying to teach us acceptance rather than judgment. It’s a very, very difficult lesson.
How many times a day do I think I judge? I really try hard not to
judge, but I fail tremendously. Although
I don’t go around judging everyone and their every action, by recognizing their
flaws more than recognizing their strengths, I am judging them.
Challenge: Count how many times I judge myself. Count how many times today I judge other people.
Judgment is a barrier to my own growth and self-awareness. I am not perfect. And judging acts as a mask of hiding my
flaws.
Just focusing on reducing the amount of judgment in my life is a
path to peace, joy and incredible spiritual growth!
Jesus, make me aware just before I am about to fall into judging
someone, and give me the grace to stop myself.
Amen.
