Seeing wrong with others


Thanks! Good share, WTI. Hope your day is filled with noble, lovely, true thoughts.  I have experienced the soul's beauty that is rich in unconditional love and all the fruits of that love.  In me - in others.  Temporarily - not steadily - but still - I've experienced it and see it as a promise of what is and can be when one is open and touched by grace.

Gods grace when we seek it always brings Truth.

when I'm judging another person's defects, there are ALWAYS 2 things I don't understand.

first, there is always one more fact about that person's life that if I knew it I would have nothing but compassion for them. This goes for my own sick father. God has continued to reveal to me how much pain and fear my Dad has had.

second, if I look deeply enough I will see that same defect of charachter in myself. "No!" you say. "I am NOTHING like that!!"  Are you sure it is not quite obvious that you have done thr same to others as is done to you? Or - Have you allowed God to show you yet the depths of your soul? That you have at the root the same problem - even if it shows itself differently at the surface? THIS is the true meaning of "judge ye not or YE shall be judged!"

about judging, Jesus says:  DON'T.

Recovery is not about standing up for ourselves and judging others and being intolerant. It's about getting to know ourselves so we can heal and be our utmost for His highest.

Awesome share! I have caught myself not liking things about people and too have noticed mostly they are things I do not like about myself, and I do at least know I can work on changing myself. Thanks for sharing your awareness. Sending you love and support!
