My Christian walk

Shutterstock image As I celebrate my birthday this coming week, I am wondering, what is wrong with me? For the past 10 to 15 years I have looked at myself in the mirror, sometimes for what felt like 5 minutes, and sometimes 2. But then I realized there is something wrong with me, the time I took looking in the mirror became less and less until when it could take me just about one second or so. That's when I realized what was wrong with me. I realized that be it five minutes or a second that I spent in the mirror, I always went there for one thing: my imperfections.

I listen to a good number of men and women of God and I get to see a wide range of ministries, from amazing ones to those that seem too much, the weird ones to those that just seem completely wrong to me. However, God has taught me that I don't have the right to judge another man's servant/service. "Who are you to judge someone else's servant? ...  " Romans 14:4  Yes, these women and men of God are called for us, but that doesn't put us in the position of a judge over them. Only the giver of the assignment does have the right to judge them. We are not present during any man's call to service, so we can't know the total job description of their assignment. Oftentimes, we sit in groups and pass judgment upon men of God about certain things that rightfully seem wrong in our eyes without understanding that we are not the caller of men.
