Who are we to judge what the Lord can do?
Posted : 27 Apr, 2010 01:54 PM

The Lord has been working on me in this area of judging others. All too often we judge, reject, and go on our marry ways. The last year or so the lord has been working on my heart about these people we all see on the streets asking for money or that just might come up and ask us for something. I know I feel threatened by them a lot, just as many of you may also. My first reaction is to say, I don�t have any money, or I have to get going, to get away from them.

The Lord tells us in the bible if someone asks you for your shirt, give them your coat also. I have thought a lot about this. I have been trying to just give. How do we know what the lord can do? He proved this to me not too long ago. I started just giving to those who asked and telling them God Bless You. About a year ago I was sitting in my truck in Atlants, Ga. when a guy who I could tell was really drugged out came up to my truck asking me for money to eat on. I immediately told him I had none. As he walked away the Holy Spirit touched my heart reminding me to just give, and not judge. I watched him go to the truck caticorner of mine in front of me, and be turned away. Then as he started to walk the away, I opened my door and called him back over to my truck. Giving him some money and saying to him, � God Bless You.� Immediately, the man broke down crying, and telling me he was hooked on drugs but wanted off them. I told him to have faith and not stop trying. That the Lord can help him if he has faith. Yes, he may have still went and bought drugs with the money I gave him. I do know one thing though. That the Lord used that situation right there to show me how faith can work for both the one giving as well as the one who receives. This man I could see was encouraged in the Lord, and not rejected by one his followers this time. That was well worth what I gave him and many times too. Who knows, the Lord may have used that one moment to free him. So who are we to judge what, or how the lord can use us in any situation? It is just for us to follow his word. May God keep our focus on allowing his love out of our hearts and to others, so they may find hope and faith just as we have.



Gods Continued Blessings And Love To All,

David
