Not Judging

I am never being scrutinized or judged by God. I am always being embraced and accepted by God!

And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.

John 12:47 (NKJV)

Jesus came accepting and embracing every person. He accepted those who believed in Him and those who did not believe. His great heart welcomed all people. He didn't come here to judge; He came here to heal, to help, to serve, to love, to save. He came to calm our fears of being judged by God, showing us instead a God who is our Daddy rather than our Judge.

Acceptance and non-judgment! This is what God gives us and we can pass it along. Knowing He doesn't judge us but instead accepts us unconditionally helps us to give the same gift to others, the gift of acceptance and non-judging. Judgment is really the 'wrong tree' isn't it? Acceptance is the tree of life! Jesus is acceptance, not judgment, what a relief! He is grace, not law, always and forever!

A Thought: Because He accepts me rather than judging me, I am freed to accept myself and others without judging.

May the amazing grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the extravagant love of God, and the intimate friendship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you. 2 Co. 13:14
