[Jesus said] “Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
Luke 6:37,38

Daily Devotion – February 28, 2025

Devotion based on Luke 6:37,38

“You’re so judgmental!” Have you ever had that accusation lobbed in your direction? There can be a whole lot of emotion behind that accusation. It could just be a guilty conscience trying to deflect a reprimand. At the same time, it can be a very pointed and accurate accusation. Sadly, in recent years, this has been cited as the number one reason that people don’t attend church. Christians are too judgmental.

Now, if you’re a Christian, you can dig in your heels and try to defend yourself against that accusation. But take these words to heart. Have you been judgmental of others? If so, according to whose standards? We’re very good at judging people according to our own standards. Even little phrases like, “I wouldn’t have done it that way,” can smell of arrogance and pride.

So, what’s the alternative when someone has done wrong? Ignore it? No. Rather, instead of using our own standards of judgment that can be marred with pride, be quick to use Jesus’ standard. Jesus didn’t excuse sin or pretend it never happened. He didn’t simply say, “That’s ok.” Rather, he forgave sin. Led by his grace, he didn’t come to condemn the world; he came to save it. Led by his grace, he came to save you. Using his standards, be quick to forgive, knowing you will be forgiven. Using his standards, give his grace, knowing that his grace will be given to you. Pour out his love, knowing that on the cross, he poured out his love for you.

Prayer:
Lord, help me remember how you dealt with sin as I deal with those who sin against me. Amen.
