Judging Others

the bible says do not judge lest ye be judged. it is wrong to judge. it is a sin. however all of us are sinners no matter how we live, we wake up with sinners blood. I try very hard to give people the benefit of the doubt and find out why they did something before judging their action. sometimes people try their best to do something good for you and it just doesn't work out...for instance. my husband thinks i am beautiful no matter what the day hour or how much makeup i have on. when he tells me im beautiful in those moments that i feel awful, it makes me mad. how can you say that to me when i look like a train wreck and then think i will believe you when i really do look good? he has good intentions, i just didn't understand them. these things happen to humanity every minute of every day of every year. just because a very good person has very good intentions, doesn't mean they are capable or even that the rest of the world won't get in the way...

I try not to judge others at all.but we all do it .some times i do it more harshly then i would .because i was already mad that day for some other reason.but i judge my self harshly all the time.i am always hard on myself then i am on others.but years ago i was not like that.i was hard on my kids then i am now.i learned that we all need to know that some one out there loves us for who we are not what we are.i have asked god to help me not judge people.because the bible tells us not to judge others .that god is the only one that should jugde us and others for what we have done.

I think that's a good way of thinking! There have been many people that have made me angry in the past and I have just simply passed judgement on them without reflecting on reasons for their actions. I still think that the world is in a sorry state! Judgement and harsh judgement at that is constantly being passed by everyone! We judge a book by its cover and we are constantly told not to do this. However, things are changing for me slowly now! I'm more considerate and caring and this is a result of reading some good books, positive thinking books! I try to look upon everyone now with a certain amount of respect and I think of them as decent people unless they prove themselves otherwise. Andrew

It is human nature to be quick in judgment of others. Actions speak louder than words. It is the first step in the judging process. We are easier and more lenient in the judgment of ourselves. We just can't help it.

judging others is not good.,because we can't see whats inside their hearts.,what their real intent,there's a lot of story in the bible about fair judgment.,

There are many people who think themselves that they are higher than those sorrounds him/her. Im too being judged. When I resign my job i the hospital. Many thinks that I done wrong. That I'm being judge like a criminal. Its a pain people thinks that way. I only resign because i did not like the work and the pressure and i like to go on business. It is hard for them to understand that?

Ahh... shaky question. I'ma have to say yes and no. Me? I judge. We all do. It's unavoidable. I know it's wrong to judge simply by appearance though, and when I do I will try to correct myself (self discipline, if ya wanna call it). If I don't I will feel like a big jerk. So i either get to know someone or i let them about their business. Intentions... sometimes people do things in order to have a certain result. How do you get a disobidient child to listen to you? In the most Southern, traditional way (i.e. me), you chastise (beat) them. If you witness chastisement are you so quick to judge the parent/gaurdian as brash and violent? What if you are married... to your wife... and she doesn't listen to you... how do you get her to listen? Do you beat her??? Surely if someone saw you doing that they'd not only more than likely interfere but they'd do so presuming that you are an ingrateful, violent and mean person. Through one action (chastising) you got to the same conclusion or intention (obedience). There are different ways of getting to that conclusion, however. and those different ways may very well conduct you as a person. Let me ask you... How would you get *your child to obey (hypothetically)? That person cut you off to get to somewhere quicker. or maybe they are just speed demons. People do things to get things. The method they use is what people judge I find. I judge myself (examine myself) by looking back on present and past actions, said and done. Also, by how i think--usually when the prejudice comes into play. Constant self examination. I can say that I do judge myself a little more harshly. Cuz its easy i guess. I'm very lazy. I don't get out much to be around people like that, and if I do, I'm not seeing anything that would contradict my thinking. I don't try to look for faults in people or try to judge them. If i first meet someone, I cant assume much. If they do something that I think is stupid, I may think that that person is stupid. Maybe. Depends on the action. If you do not judge every here in there, you'd either find yourself trusting OR distrusting everyone you see, and you can't live life like that mane. I sound like i'm rambling.
