Reflections… a Scripture verse and inspiration for daily living [2/27/19]

A friend of mine mentioned a portion of Scripture to me many years ago.  It was where Jesus rebuked Peter.  Paraphrasing, Jesus said, what is it to you what I do with someone else?  He continued with, go mind your own business.  We have enough to do to keep our own relationship with God headed in the right direction, never mind trying to point out to someone else their failures or shortcomings.  Let’s focus upon our own walk with the Lord and leave the work of the Lord to the Lord.  In Jesus’ name, I pray.  Amen.

Verses: Romans 14:10-13 (NIV)
You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. It is written:
“‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bow before me;
every tongue will acknowledge God.’”

So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.
Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another.
