BE A LOVER NOT A JUDGE

Their voices so loud, once cheerful faces turned red in anger clouded with judgment, I thought they loved me” she thought. Her heart beating so fast, tears stung at her eyes at how she felt, a mixture of guilt, fear, shame, exhaustion, loneliness etc all at once, I need to get out of here,

 I need to run away, what should I do, who do I talk to, all these emotions bottled up in her and no one could sense her frustration, instead they were all focused on making their individual eloquent points.

Then her opportunity came, in a blink of an eye the group without realising the subject of their discussion was gone, where she went they wondered after a long time no one found her, they continued the meeting discussing other issues on the agenda like nothing happened, they was a move to adjourn and the meeting ended as they shared the grace in fellowship.

Ann found herself all alone wondering what she would do, she was thrown out by her family, where she was told over and over again IT DOES NOT MATTER what you have done God’s forgiveness is available to wash it all away, you are welcome and we love you just as you are, your past is washed away, but they did not mention the silent rule which states that IF YOU MESS UP AGAIN AND WE FOUND OUT YOU ARE GOING TO BE AN OUTCAST. So Ann went back to where she was familiar with, back to the world system at the vulnerable state she was in, with no one to guide her through the challenge she was facing. She went back to where no one judged her; instead she received wrong counsel, which yielded several outcomes and months later the word came out,

“DID YOU HEAR WHAT HAPPENED TO ANN?’

Became the conversation opener, hmmmmm she now clubs, drinks, smokes and is dating a cultist, can you imagine? And I thought she was a Christian ohhh, so all that time she was raising up holy hands it was in pretence, smh what a pity, I knew something was up with her, I SENSED IT IN MY SPIRIT. I even heard she is not prostituting, hmmm you did not hear it from me ohhh etc.

Love each other in the Lord, do not judge one another, correct each other in love, guiding each other, that way we grow strong, but if we continue to point fingers at each other to determine who is worst then we are wrong. Proverbs 27v17

If you are still wondering what Ann the character did instead of concentrating on the message on this write up then you are wrong The grace of God is more than enough for us ALL, we have no right to judge anyone. Matthew 7v1-6(msg Version).

Love each other at all times. Show love at all times,pray for each other at all times. And when in a position and for some reason love seems far from you, then you should ask God to help you. And His love that surpasses all understanding definitely will envelope you.at that point wash the person with the word of God.( :)

Replace judgment with love and mercy. May God help us all.

I celebrate you all.
