When Jesus said that we should not judge lest we be judged, he was stating the action of the law of cause and effect. If we wish a complete clearance from any sense of condemnation about ourselves, we must first be certain we have released all condemnation of others from our own minds.~Ernest Holmes
*********************************************
After I read these words of Ernest Holmes, I picked up my Daily Word booklet and read the message saying...'as children of God we mirror to one another the divine attributes within us.' And I thought to myself...I wonder if we also mirror to one another the negative attributes within us. Hmmm.
Is the person who is critical of me simply a mirror image of my own critical inner being? Are those who sit in judgment of me a mirror image of myself sitting in judgment of others?
Yikes, once again I am confronted with the knowing that this spiritual path is about ME, not THEM. I have to release my criticism, my judgment, my "stuff" and that will allow the Spirit in me and the Spirit in others to know their Oneness.
There is One Presence and One Power. That Presence and Power is God and that Presence and Power fills everything and everybody.
