Matthew
7:1,2
"Do not judge or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge
others, you will be judged, and with
the measure you use, it will be measured to you." (NIV)
"Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge,
ye shall be judged: and with what
measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again." (KJV)
What measuring
stick do we use to make a judgment about others? If we are
honest with ourselves we would have to say we judge others by those very same things that lie within each and every one of our
hearts. We are just as capable of the same things we judge
in others. So be careful when you judge others. God is
searching the thoughts and intentions of our hearts. He will
use the same measuring stick to judge us that we use to judge others.
Heavenly Father,
we stand in need of Your forgiveness for taking it on ourselves to judge others.
When we find ourselves making an opinion about others, help us to stop and
remember that we, ourselves are not walking in perfection either. Give us
awareness that we are as vulnerable to doing the same irritating, ungodly things
we see in others. Search our hearts and help us clean up our own lives. We pray
in Jesus' name, Amen.
