     | 3,252 views

    When we Judge God by our own definition and limited understanding, we make God small, strip Him of his power and remove his grace and mercy from our lives. We diminish his work on the cross and the presence of the Holy Spirit.

I’ve been catching myself judging and then finding myself rationalizing and justifying my actions. Just the other day, I’m driving in my car and I’m thinking what a terrible ...read more
