Are You Being Judged?

It hurts when people judge us.  Passing judgment in and of itself is not bad, it is how the judging is done.  There are times in our lives-lots of times, in my life, when judgment is helpful.  If the judgment is fair, right and true, if the judgment is helpful to your life and will only result in you doing better in life-this is judgment that you and I need.  Judgment that is detrimental, condescending and discouraging should be unwanted and is, without a doubt, unnecessary.

Judging should be according to Philippians 4:8:

Philippians 4:8 KJV Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.

And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Phil. 4:8 (New Living Translation)
