But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. (Romans 14:10)
The first thing God must change in us is a judgmental attitude. Are we more interested in being right than glorifying God? Are our words harsh and judgmental, or are they kind and gracious? We can easily convince ourselves we are glorifying Him, when we are actually grieving Him by demanding our rights and defending our point of view. Truthfully, we only hear God clearly when we humble ourselves and stop insisting on winning the argument and having things our way. Forgive us, Lord, and teach us to show others the grace You have shown us.
Let's Pray - Dear Lord, please forgive me for judging others and misrepresenting You. Give me Your heart for my fellow man and help me to see them as You see them. Amen.
