The Need to Condemn
Judge not. That’s one of the few lines said by Jesus that most people actually know. It may be the one we least take to heart, and I think the problem is indeed
in our hearts
– our poor, precious hearts are so battered and torn that perhaps the judging we do is some convoluted and misguided attempt at self defense.
Psalm 139 is all about the gift of being intimately known by the Holy One and about how we can use this self-knowledge to live larger and more loving lives.
And yet, there is an astonishing amount of fear in it, fear laced in the love. What’s that fear doing there?
Let us ponder this psalm together and explore our own hearts so that we may find our own ways on the path of Love.
Yours on the journey,
Katie
