Miss the Mark

How many pass judgement on others without really knowing who is being judge? How many people have had first hand experience with and gotten to know someone like our current president, as an example? Almost all the information we receive via media sources, isn't first hand information, because, for instance, I am not personally here with you as you are reading this, and without my presence, you use your own presence to interpret what is being written. And, based upon your own biases, you judge what I write accordingly.

It is easy to judge people based upon what others tell us when we don't apply our own discernment about what is read or seen on the media.

There is that old saying, "Judge not lest ye be judged." and another, "Let those amongst us who are without sin, cast the first stone." (Sin is an archery term which means missed the mark.)

I'm not a very good archer, so I often sin, and I am trying to be the best person I know how to be so that I don't miss the mark as often as I use to.

Blessings to us all.
