The Way We Look

I find people as a whole are very judgmental, what does this say about them. The question is why, why judge someone you don't know. In fact, why judge someone you do know. In judging others, do you feel better~stronger. Aren't you taking God's place, only God is to judge. I would never want God's job, I will leave it for Him. Date Written:1/6/2023 Honorable Mention

Your words are so true Paula. We tend to sometimes judge when we have no right to do it. God is the only judge and we must remember that. love phyl

“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. Matthew 7:3?-?5 NIV Love these verses we have enough about ourselves that we should worry about : ) if not living in blindness

Paula, the things you've written are absolutely spot on. Nobody among us has the right to pass judgment on anyone else.

Paula, you've written truthful words. We're not fit to judge each other.
