Here lately I have been struggling with treating others how I should be treated, how GOD would treat them. I find myself judging so fast, not knowing who these people are, not knowing where these people have been or what they have gone through. It is very hard in this line of work to always think first and judge later, or not judge at all.
I have been praying about it for a while and Sunday in church I prayed about it again and guess what??? HE answered my prayer by giving me the scripture... Matthew 7
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
This is so true, how can I judge someone at all, let alone without even knowing everything about them. I need GOD to give me the strength, the tolerance, the knowledge, the love. I need to look at people through HIS eyes and see what HE sees. Because in the end we are all the same, we are all loved the same and treated the same by HIM, we are all created equal. HE loves us all the same. I should love everyone else the same, I should look at everyone the same.

Tis hard not to judge. I judge in my line of work too. I try to remind myself it is not my place but I am onl human. My husband keeps me grounded and helps me not judge.
