A MILE IN HIS OR HER SHOES

A MILE- IN HIS OR HER SHOES God LOVES every single person On this earth He made EACH and every one Of us equally And he LOVES all of us The SAME “Amen-amen-I say to you WHOEVER receives the one I send-receives me- And whoever receives me RECEIVES the one Who sent me” John 13:20 WHENEVER we meet A new person in this world It only takes a moment To gather information And react We all have a tendency To make snap judgments About each other Based on first impressions THIS we can’t control But maybe We should get to KNOW Another person Maybe we should WALK a mile In his or her shoes BEFORE we begin to judge them “LET the Lord Judge the people Vindicate me-Lord ACCORDING to my righteousness According to my integrity O MOST HIGH” Psalm 7:8 “For the Lord-IS our judge The Lord is our lawgiver The Lord is our king It is he WHO will save us” Isaiah 33:22 “Do NOT judge Or you too Will be JUDGED For in the SAME WAY You judge others You will be judged And with the same measure You use It will be measured To you” Matthew 7:1-2 Let us ALL- GO THE EXTRA MILE Let us all LOVE GOD And LOVE EACH OTHER Let us ALL walk a mile In the other guy or girls’ shoes BEFORE beginning to even think about Passing any judgment upon another As a CHRISTIAN- Our job is to LOVE- NOT to judge “By this EVERYONE will know That you are my disciples IF you LOVE ONE ANOTHER” John 13:35 Maybe we should think about The other person Maybe we should ask ourselves: What’s really going on In that person’s life? What is it really like To be him or her? HOW does God see him or her? With each person that we meet WE MEET THE Lord Let us WALK with them and with God In their journey through life A MILE IN THEIR VERY OWN SHOES Robert P.
