"DO NOT SAY WHAT IS WRONG IN OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES. THEN OTHER PEOPLE WON'T SAY WHAT IS WRONG IN YOUR LIFE." ~ NLV
Hello All,
Today I thought I'd share with you all a verse that I have recently come across and fallen in love with.
I am a rather passionate person when it comes to certain things in life such as Theatre, God and Judgement. You may think that judgement is a rather odd thing to feel passionate about and that it's rather hypocritical, which I cannot deny! Recently I have been challenged with the opportunity to accept people into my life who are completely judged by other people and it got me to thinking that I don't want to be just another person who discriminates and judges a person on the rumours I have heard or on the way a person dresses or who they are or what they have done.
I feel that in no way is it my place to judge a person because at the end of the day Judgement should be left down to God, so what if someone is on drugs, so what if someone is a thief, so what if someone is just sleeping around, yeah they may be sins but guess what so is that little white lie you told today, that deceitfulness you showed today and guess what all sin is equal in the eyes of God, we as humans are in no place to judge one another, instead we are supposed to LOVE and ACCEPT one another.
If as Christians we claim to love and follow God but we discriminate against and judge those who look or sound different or who have come from a different background then we aren't following God. How is a person supposed to come to know God if they are treated with disrespect and looked down on, they aren't going to come to know God.
To judge someone in a negative way is to say that you are more important then them, but you are not. They're as much of a child of God as you are and they deserve to be treated like one.
Do not say what is wrong in other people's lives. Then other people won't say what's wrong in your life.
Love Joanna
