many called few chosen day 9 (Judge Not)
Never Judge another person for their faults or downfalls...Cuz,We all have fallen short of the grace of God...And, who are we to Judge someone else??? That is un-Godly and that is not being Christ-like....
The Lord had to deal with me on this subject a few times before..Reminding me that just bcuz I have over come certain situations (and, personalities) it simply did not give me the right to judge another for missing the mark ... Especially when it came to dealing with difficult people...Cuz, I used to be one of those difficult people...The same way he loved me passed my difficult ways.. showing love and compassion as Christ did for me....I have to learn to be just as loving,kind, and compassionate ,understanding, and patient with them as He has been and still is with me...Amen
(It's called walking in love)
I'm a work in progress just like they are....
And, the scripture Does not lie...Cuz the same level you judge...you will be judged...Not a good feeling...I had to learn the hard way....Got a taste of my own medicine...and, it was hard to swallow and deal with at the time.. The TRUTH shall set me free...
Matthew 7 (King James Version)
Matthew 7
1Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
6Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
7Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
(But, I humbled myself...repented.. and asked for guidance and direction to keep me from repeating the same mistake...)
8For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
I thank God and the Precious Holy Spirit.... who have both helped me to completely understand the importance of Not being judgemental...

(and, who the Lord sets free...is free indeed...amen)
Ya know...When I see people on the side of the road or even at the front of a store asking for money....Whether I think they need it or not is not my actual concern....I give of what I have at that very moment....it has been times I had spent my very last on something to eat and turned around and gave my meal to that person...and felt good about it...not knowing if it was an actual person in need..or angel of God testing my good will...either way I feel blessed just by blessing that person....makes my heart smile inside...to show and share Gods love even just a bit.
Hebrews 13:2
2Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
I have even actually invited them into my home washed all their clothes let them shower...eat as if they were kings and not homeless...treat them like an actual human beings...with love and compassion...
I've gotten up in at two or three in the morning cooked and brought meals to some homeless boys...after I couldn't let them stay with me anymore bcuz of the threats made by my landlord...
I almost lost my home to reach out and help another in need...
But, I did everything I could...when I could...I did not Judge them...I Blessed them.
