Judge Not That I May Not Be Judged

Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?  James 4:11-12  ESV.

Dear Heavenly Father i am mindful not to judge friends, colleagues, church members, and even family members so carelessly, quickly or enviously without first thinking through and praying for them, if there seems to be injustice or evil. Help me to reflect and meditate on this timely biblical instruction throughout the week. May i be slow to speak and quick to listen especially to the still small vioce of the Holy Spirit. Help me to speak words of edification and love to those who need to be lifted up in their spirit. Thank you Father. In Jesus' name i pray.
