'Don't judge a book by it's cover
Don't make your mind up, too soon
Never ever ever ever, ever ever ever ever, ever judge a book by its cover!'
~Thomas the Tank Engine
This is only a short post due to my absolutley massive week, which I shall talk about in my next blog probably. Anyway, on Becky's heart this February month is Judgement. Recently, God has revealed to me people I never knew, who I had pretty bad perceptions of previously due to what people say, their attitudes in my observations of these people etc, as beautiful, joyous, brilliant people.
How easy is it, to make an opinion of someone you don't know? It's CRAZY. You will never know. You are not justified in knowing, because you don't. I didn't know people I thought badly of, how is this possible?! All of the things I have thought about some people is what I was myself. Obnoxious, snobby, critical, cocky, sour person. That was what I thought, and that is what I was. These people have been revealed to me as brilliant people, which pains me to say how wrong I was, I feel hurt for them from my thoughts.
Don't judge. You're only dooming yourself and limiting people. Those same people could may well have been our closest of friends if we didn't limit them with our dangerous and un justified thoughts.
True post bec.
ReplyDeleteAs you know, I've had problems with feeling like I'm being judged, and feeling like that, has led me to making false judgements of other people.
Hard topic.
Love your honesty and openness.
