37 “Do
not judge others, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn others, or
it will all come back against you. Forgive others, and you will be
forgiven. 38 Give,
and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed
down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured
into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get
back.[a]”
It is not my job to sit in condemning judgement of others. If I do I will receive the same. It is painful to be condemned by others because we know that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:1) Condemnation is from Satan. In not judging we are giving. And then we can receive what God has in store for us. God packs it down hard, pours it in til it's running over, then places it in our laps. The more we give the more we receive.
I try not to judge people. I don't like to be judged, so I try not to do it. It is not my place. I live for God and God alone. My time, my talent, my food, clothes and shelter are all given to God for His use. And he blesses me with everything I need and more. Food, clothing, shelter, time with Him, protection, and unbelievable love.
Lord,
Help me to not pass judgement on others but to see them thru your eyes, to have compassion on them. Help me to give more out of the abundance that I have. Help me to love more, and to receive more when you give to me. I am not good at receiving. Pour out in abundant overflow your blessings on me and my family and my friends and all who read this.
In your precious name,
Amen
