Avoid judging others
Struggle mightily to avoid judging others. God alone has the right to judge.
- St Tikhon of Zadonsk
Do not judge…
A discerning man, when he eats grapes, takes only the ripe ones and leaves the sour. Thus also the discerning mind carefully marks the virtues which he sees in any person. A mindless man seeks out the vices and failings… Even if you see someone sin with your own eyes, do not judge; for often even your eyes are deceived.
- St. John of the Ladder
Don’t Judge
“Dont criticize or judge other people—regard everyone else as an angel, justify their mistakes and weaknesses, and condemn only yourself as the worst sinner. This is step one in any kind of spiritual life.”
-Father Seraphim Rose
