Don’t speak evil against each other, dear brothers and sisters. If you criticize and judge each other, then you are criticizing and judging God’s law. But your job is to obey the law, not to judge whether it applies to you. God alone, who gave the law, is the Judge. He alone has the power to save or to destroy. So, what right do you have to judge your neighbor? James 4:11-12 (NLT) Every time you’re tempted to judge someone, consider showing radical love instead. Let your thoughts and comments about others be spirit-led. No one is perfect and you don’t know their story. God is working on us all – so our lives will give Him glory. While you’re judging on the outside, God is looking at the heart. No matter what you may see, anyone can have a brand-new start. We are all in need of the Lord’s forgiveness and renewal every day. So, if you open your mouth towards anyone – let it be to pray. Set your intentions to uplift and never tear down with your words or deeds. Remember, everything that comes forth from a child of God is planting a seed. Let what you send forth have the intentions of bringing life, hope and love. Leave all judgement for our heavenly Father above. We are all clay in the potter’s hands and no one can be counted out. No matter what someone’s is dealing with, it’s never too late for God to bring them out. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon
