Don\u2019t be so quick to cast judgment on others. Everything we say about others, God will judge us for as well. It isn\u2019t easy to remember not to judge people by what they say or what they do. It\u2019s almost even harder to not judge people for the things that they don\u2019t say or the things they don\u2019t do. For instance, how often do you find yourself comparing yourself to someone else saying, \u201cman I\u2019m so glad I\u2019m not him or her\u201d? Or how about, \u201cI can\u2019t believe she\/he would do that. I\u2019d never do something like that. Or even, \u201cIf I was her or him I\u2019d walk away from her or him quicker than anything.\u201d How about, \u201cI can\u2019t figure out why he or she doesn\u2019t or didn\u2019t dump him or her sooner. What\u2019s wrong with them?\u201d \u201cI\u2019m so glad I don\u2019t have that job. His or her job sucks, why don\u2019t they actually get a real job? How can they work in a place like that?\u201d Does any of this sound like something you\u2019d say? If it is, then it\u2019s time for a change of heart.<\/p>\n
But don\u2019t worry. Every single one of us has felt that way. It\u2019s how much effort we give to break that habit that is important. God can help you break the habit if you ask Him for His help. Let\u2019s face it, we all need God\u2019s guidance and God\u2019s help not to judge others. Because if we judge others and don\u2019t ask Him for forgiveness for it, then He will judge us in the same way, when we are in front of Him when we see Him decide our fate. He will either say \u201cwell done good and faithful servant\u201d and welcome us into Heaven, or \u201caway from me evildoer, I don\u2019t know you, and damn us into Hell. I don\u2019t know about you, but I sure as heck don\u2019t want the latter. Yes, if you believe in Him with all your heart as your Savior, you are saved, but you don\u2019t want the same judgment you cast on someone else in a moment of frustration or anger to be judged upon you by your Savior, do you?<\/p>\n
It is easy to cast judgment on someone, but we hate it when the judgment gets cast on us in return. We love judging someone by the clothes they wear or the way they talk or the way they run their own life, but if someone ever dares to say something about us or to us about the way we dress, talk or run our lives, we automatically go into a mental fighting stance and get defensive because of our pride. Our pride can ultimately destroy us and our relationships with others if we aren\u2019t careful. Before you think of saying something about someone else, think to yourself, \u201cis this really going to benefit me or the other person, or am I just doing it because I\u2019m angry and want to get back at that person?\u201d Stopping and thinking about your angry words before you speak is another habit that is very hard to stay on track with. It\u2019s not easy to be slow to anger and slow to speak when you\u2019re already angry about something or itching to judge someone though, either.<\/p>\n
Not judging people is one of the hardest habits to break. It can be seen as a fun hobby or a way to pass the time until it gets turned around and the fingers start pointing at us. Satan makes us feel good when we judge others because, in turn, it makes us feel like we are better than the person we\u2019re judging. The truth is, none of us are any better than anyone else. We are all sinners by nature. We all aren\u2019t perfect. The only person who didn\u2019t judge was Jesus. He could have easily judged every single one of us, but instead, He chose to love us and to teach us how to live and how to love other people in the way He does. We can definitely learn things from Him if we allow ourselves to be open to change.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ve all been in that place where our words come out of our mouths and we instantly or later regret them. Remember, our words are tracible back to us and everything we say can and normally is used against us in an argument. So, it\u2019s better to not say anything and just keep our mouths shut.<\/p>\n
As hard as it is, keep your thoughts to yourself instead of going off in anger and remember the Bible verse, from Mathew 7:1-5 that says, \u201cDo not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.3 \u201cWhy do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother\u2019s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, \u2018Let me take the speck out of your eye,\u2019 when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother\u2019s eye.\u201d It is a harsh reminder, but a good reminder for us to stop judging others so quickly.<\/p>\n
If we judge others, they will judge us back. If we judge others, God will judge us in the same way. It is so much better to show love than to judge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
