i created a new page to help me word my thoughts on God and his word, and understand them more myself. no christian should be ashamed of who they are. i've never purposefully tried to hide my Christianity, but feel i have't shown it enough. haven't PREACHED it enough! please please please take on board what i have to say and ask me any questions you have. the purpose of this isn't to convert you, just to share my thoughts, try to get more people to understand. i love you all no matter what religion you are. please don't forget that. now, on with my thoughts:
do not judge, or you too will be judged. for in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use it, it will be measured to you (Matthew 7:1-2)
i've wasted way too much time in life judging other people. i believe and am influenced by what people tell me is right or normal or pretty, what's funny, what's entertaining, who's talented...
and this has made me so self conscious. because if i think horrible thoughts of other people, what's to stop them thinking horrible thoughts about me? "MY HAIR LOOKS FRIZZY EVERYONE WILL HATE ME!". because i might look at someone and think poor them with frizzy hair they should really do something about that...
but then i realised that not many people other than me think that. i'm being paranoid, self conscious, bitchy and judgemental. and i know it's really stupid and i am trying to change. i'm really trying to get rid of those mean thoughts that i think, because i know that i am a bitch.
it's common sense that if we're nice to people then they're nice to us back, we don't need God to tell us that to realise it. but judging people is a whole lot different. it's secret. and we can sometimes not realise what we're doing when we think those thoughts. but God is right, he is completely right when he says that we will be judged if we judge others.
even if people don't say anything, you can tell if somebody's judging you. haven't you thought ugh that girl's looking at me, looking down on me, what a bitch judging me she doesn't even know me... she was judging you and instantly you judged her back.
it's hard to change how you think and feel but i am making an effort. i am making a huge effort as part of becoming a better person, a better christian.
because i know i cannot be a good chirstian if i am not taking on board, understanding and acting to God's word.
