Sitting here enjoying my cup of joe, enjoying the quiet time and reading my devotional. The topic was JUDGING! Eeeeek! It's a touchy subject right? Have you ever been judged? Have you ever judged someone? I've been on both sides of the fence. I've lately encountered a rough patch where someone close to me judged me and my ways. The sad thing is it ruined our friendship and it hurt me deeply. But by the Grace of God I've been able to forgive and move forward. Sadly, I often get judged or questioned. Often get asked: Am I really that happy? Does being a Christian make you better than me? I shouldn't do this or that. We all walk different paths in life. We all have challenges. We all have different beliefs.
Just because a certain person acts or lives a certain way it's not our place to judge or assume. Often times when one is looking at a person through a magnifying class it's really them they are looking at. We need to stop looking at others faults and instead embrace their good qualities. Nobody is perfect. I'm not perfect! Instead we should encourage each other, look past their faults and simply love them for them. If Jesus loves you for you then strive to be more like Him...Walk in LOVE, Talk in LOVE, Act in LOVE ❤

In honor of Good Friday remember Jesus died for you. He forgives us everyday. He loves and accepts us for us ❤
Thank You Jesus for dying for me. Thank You for forgiving me. Thank You for your new mercy everyday. Today I am set free from living in fear. I'm free of my self image issues. I know how to forgive, I love others for who they are and most importantly I'm your child ❤
Amen sista!!! Xoxo
