We’ve been on a series about judgment, and how damaging it can be to our relationships. The trouble is, many of us have been raised to be judgmental. Many legalistic religious groups seem to encourage s judgment, but we need to follow Jesus’ example.
Jesus didn’t judge sinners; He ate with them. He befriended them. He u accepted them, and reprimanded those who self-righteously judged u them. The truth is, none of us have the right to judge another. We are all imperfect, right with God not because we’re so good but because s of what Jesus has done.
We’re empowered by His Spirit in us to love others the way He
loves people—with unconditional, agape love. On our own strength, we can’t love and accept people this way. It can be tempting to want r to judge others and hold on to unforgiveness and resentment, but the g. Spirit of God within us can empower us to walk in His agape love. We are empowered to love even when that love is undeserved.
If there’s one thing I want you to take away from this series of u devotionals on judgment, it’s simply that I hope you are encouraged
to stop assuming why people do what they do. When someone does s something to hurt you, find a way to ask them about it. It can be hard a to admit when you’re hurt, but you’ll save yourself a lot of pain and e suffering if you can get to the bottom of the issue from the start.
