Joy not judgment

I've been listening and thinking about we who say we love God.  We all do our best to live for Him and to be good representatives of Jesus Christ, but sometimes we fall short.  I thank the Lord of heaven that he picks us up when we fall down. None of us who are Christians are perfect. We all make mistakes. We all fall short of the Glory of God.  I was thinking. ..if messing up and falling short meant you couldn't serve God, there would be NO ONE LEFT ON 🌍 EARTH  to give his message of love and forgiveness. None of us would know about the gifts of heaven.  We all do our best, but a servant who falls short of "perfection ", whatever that is, is the best example of the love and restoration of Jesus Christ. As we look at our fellow Christians,  instead of judging and being critical when they make a mistake, we will put our hands up in prayer and say, "Lord, I thank you that this one is lifted and I pray that i can be lifted and restored when I stumble just like my brethren in Christ." God is Love. Let's all strive to be love without criticism, and joy without judgment.
Walk in love children.
