We have such coarse hearts and are virtually incapable of loving with true compassion. God is jurisprudent, but our ability to forgive unfortunately is severely underdeveloped. We are not able to easily recognize a pure and beautiful heart or discern love when it is bestowed upon us. Even though we lack perception, we proceed judging ourselves and others based on ignorance and shallow standards of value. Yet the verdict we hand down does not necessarily reflect what God thinks or feels about us.
Salvation is a result of judgment.
Judgment involves confronting the truth. After such an encounter it becomes necessary to make needed adjustments. To do so may be irritating or even cause some major discomfort, but keep in mind that the moment after, liberation will begin to penetrate your heart. Judgment should never be feared. Yet if you can adopt this viewpoint, you will face judgment with hope and positive expectation.
