Written from a space of: Repentance

I truly believe that God wants me to wholeheartedly live out not judging others. I’ve experienced plenty scenarios where I have judged others only for an eerily similar situation to later show up for me. And immediately after said circumstance, God gently reminds me of the time I judged for that exact same act. Whew! 😬
So, to help me stay on the straight and narrow, I’ve come up with what I call the “The Six Rs of a NonJudgemental Mindset”
1 - Rely
When I feel a judgement coming on, I RELY on the Holy Spirit to guide my thoughts.
2 - Remember
When I think I am better than others, I REMEMBER my shortcomings.
3 - Recall
When I think others should have known better, I RECALL the times I did not.
4 - Regard
When I have a hard time accepting someone, I REGARD how unloved I would feel.
5 - Realize
When I struggle with giving the benefit of the doubt, I REALIZE that’s when I need to the most.
6 - Recognize
When I tell myself, “I would never do or think that,” I RECOGNIZE I cannot predict the future.
Even though I may feel validated in the moment, God is calling me higher. To accept, be patient with, and love others, despite the difference in opinions, behaviors, and looks.
