judging

God wants us to humbly and sincerely ask him things. How often do you enjoy people talking about you without taking the time to get to know you?

Ricky just listens. He isn't shocked. He isn't surprised. He listens to me because he knows. He knows the shame and the guilt and the sorrow and the rage. And he does not judge me. He just listens.

I'd developed an inability to demonstrate much negative emotion at all. It was another thing that made me seem like a dick - my stomach could be all oiled eels, and you would get nothing from my face and less from my words. It was a constant problem: too much control or no control at all.

If you cannot judge a book by its cover, surely we should not judge an author by one book alone?

Every time someone reaches out to you, even if it's to point out your sin and they seem to be judging you, it is a token of God's mercy. He sees the past, present, and future. He knows that you're headed for an eternity of pain and sorrow and He's begging you to turn to Him for salvation. Jesus is the only way to Heaven: the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He is your only hope. He is your Creator and He loves you more than you could ever love yourself. Please turn to Him. Please don't be deceived into thinking your way is better than His. God's way is perfect.

We live our lives supposing things are as they appear to be when that is almost never the case.

No one has it all figured out, especially not the people who are acting like they do and judging you because of it. Pretending to be something you aren't because you're trying to please a bunch of judgmental hypocrites and shitheads is not the way to be happy. Living the life you want to live is. It really is that simple.

One mistake is all they see.

True education should teach us how to think, how to see the beauty in the midst of ugliness, how to love without judging, how to find opportunity to help, and how to develop a peaceful and nonviolent society.

I'd learned that the same internal voice that told me I wasn't good enough had a habit of judging other women, too. They fed into each other, so it was best to quell such thoughts before they gathered strength.

It is the Holy Spirit's job to convict, God's job to judge and my job to love.

We grow old judging othersAnd ourselvesUntil life humbles usAnd makes scared children of usLonging to hold another__ handTo hear their kind words And witness their kind deeds done on our behalf.But like children,We sabotage everythingFor nothing satisfies usUntil life crumbles usAnd we are no more.

If a man brags about his sex life he's a stud, but if a woman brags about her sex life she's a slut.

They have their opinions, but we have the answers.

All the whispering, glaring, pointing and judging makes them no better than whoever or whatever it is they're gossiping about.

Judge tenderly, if you must. There is usually a side you have not heard, a story you know nothing about, and a battle waged that you are not having to fight._ _ Traci Lea LaRussa

Don__ you ever dare judge, for who among us can say that when the devil himself offered us a deal, we refused?

For grey matter, there is no black and white. If you think in black and white, then you do not use enough brain functions.
