I agree. We do not have the ability to truly judge the whole of a person. Each of us has strong points and weaknesses - many of them due to genetic makeup, others due to life experiences and some just due to flaws in our mental abilities.
God sees the “why” some things are hard for one and not the other. God sees the life experiences causing our “quirks”, so only God can truly judge.
Man judges on man’s view knowing only a tenth of the whole.
And we cannot judge the heart - but God knows the heart.
You're right. I was saved 27 yrs ago... and I have to say..... I was not a very nice person. It took a series of shattering experiences to bring me to my knees. When I did... I never looked back. I've had struggles in my faith just like most people but I know where my strength comes from....and it's not human.
I had to deal with all the old friends and my spouse mocking me as "the Jesus freak".....and the church members shaking their fingers in my face because I wasn't "good enough". It shocked and hurt me at first...but I knew what the Lord had done....so I just stood in faith. Eventually, everyone either settled down and accepted it....or they removed themselves from my life. I can't live for what others think of me in this life.... I can only strive to be the best I can be... for God (and I don't always pull that off!)
I guess the moral of the story here is......"But for the grace of God......go I." :)
