WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE?

By Vernalee

The Bible at Matthew 7 :: NIV. "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."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?” What great advice!

Amazing how few of us take it!

It stands to reason that if we focus attention on ourselves; on our actions instead of trying to judge others, life would be better. We all have our strengths and weaknesses; our goodness and faults. I pray that I concentrate on looking within at myself so that I can improve and better any and all of my deficiencies. I am not capable of judging anyone. Besides, who can throw a stone if he/she has not sinned. Certainly, I can’t. None of us can because we have all fallen short. So I ask the proverbial question again - “Who are we to judge?”
