STEEMCHURCH: Before judging the other

"... Blessed are those who keep justice, Those who do justice at all times." Psalm 106: 3

Social justice is a concept that Jesus came to teach us and that God has asked us to always prevail in the coexistence of society. How often do we have the opportunity to demonstrate our judgment, to be fair to our neighbor, not to judge others for their decisions, to put ourselves in the shoes of our neighbors to understand their situations? How many times have we been the ones who have promoted injustice, social differentiation due to some type of discrimination?

Justice is a very difficult term to digest because it also takes a value judgment; that is, we impart justice or not according to what we believe is fair. However, we must remember that in the sacred scriptures, in the actions of Jesus and in the love of God we can find the right answers about justice.

God expects us to be righteous based on his love, but also understands that we are not perfect, that many times we are subjects that can be tempted or that can be irrational. Let us never lose the opportunity to live the love of God, to preach the teachings of Jesus, through our judgment.

Being fair is not just about occasions when we have the power to decide whether someone should be punished or not. Justice is about having empathy with others: to understand that we have not all had the same economic, social or cultural opportunities. Being fair is about loving your neighbor without judging him before you know him. It is about having the ability to reflect on good and evil, as well as the reasons why they could prevail in someone.

Every day we have the opportunity to be fair to ourselves and to others. Every day we live with many people we do not know, that we may have never seen and, in each of these meetings, we have the opportunity to establish a trial. It is up to us to listen to the prejudices and absurd paradigms with which we believe that a person is one way or another, or to give us the opportunity to approach strangers with nothing but the love of God to understand the reason for their people .

True judgment can only be done by God because He is perfect. We only need to love ourselves, be simple and humble with our peers. Whenever we find ourselves in the opportunity to know the wonderful inner world that another person can have, let's not approach them with judgments. It is valid to have conclusions about others, but only after dealing with them, to know them, to understand where they come from, what context their personality comes from and, without forgetting that we are filled with the love of God.

Nobody is perfect, only god. Before judging others, let us remember that we are also full of imperfections, that we have also had difficult moments in which our hearts could have cooled, that we have also been judged unjustly and that we were also born of God's love.

Speaking of justice, this message seems fair to me. You can not Judge with the intention of condemning, but with the idea of correcting and helping people. David used the perfect words: With mercy and truth (Proverbs 16: 6) Blessings Angélica

Where there is justice there is freedom ... We must judge with just judgment without forgetting that we all make mistakes. Blessings

Hello! I find your post valuable for the wafrica community! Thanks for the great post! @wafrica is now following you! ALWAYs follow @wafrica and use the wafrica tag!

In the wrath of man does not work the justice of God, it is important to learn to trust in God and not judge or avenge by our hand, since only divine justice judges with just judgment.

This excellent publication would come very well to @steemcourt, as it speaks of justice and justice, my humble opinion.

God bless you sister
