Judge Not--Lest Ye Be

What hurt filled words did you convey, What in the world did you say, You made them leave and walk away, You are acting like their prey. Fighting does not make sense, The neighbors can hear you over the fence, You will not listen are you that dense, What we are is in great suspense. I cannot judge for I will be judged, In judging I may be misjudged, Oh no I could be prejudged, All I want is some chocolate fudge. I will leave it all up to God, He is my fighting squad.

"I cannot judge for I will be judged" So true. Words can hurt or heal. Always think before you speak. *All I want is some chocolate fudge* This thought made me smile. Thank you for that, Paula. Many wonderful blessings to you. :)

Judging is only for God to do at our end days, we need to be rays of sun for each other and realize, everyone is doing their best, thank you for sharing this message dear friend, Have a blessed day. Much love Paula
