Reading from James about judging others Today in church the minister preached on favourtism and it was awesome! It really made me open my eyes and my mind as to how it is I/we all place importance on someones outward appearance, afterall, you only get one chance to make a FIRST impression, however, judging someone solely on that is ever so wrong! I am guilty of seeing someone sight alone and never having spoken to them and simply judging and making up my mind about that person even before getting to know them. Someone once told me, "whenever I see a black guy walk by I always clutch my bag harder", lol, to which I simply said, 'you know Jeffery Dahmer was a white man, but I certainly don't believe that every white man I see wants to eat me. I know many people have judged me without getting to know me and when they get to know me, I always hear, "I never knew......" lol. Do you judge someone purely on their accomplishments, wealth, age, lineage etc.? When we judge others, let's remember to look at that man/woman staring back at us in that mirror and judge that person instead of others.
