Reflections on JusticeНамуна

During one of my ministry stations, I was informed about a woman in the church. Despite hearing various accounts of her behaviour, I realised my knowledge of her was superficial. I didn’t want to prejudge her, so I decided to hear her story. Through our conversation, I better understood her character and the experiences that had shaped her into the person she was back then.
Instances like these are all too common, not just in our communities but even within our churches. We often witness people being marginalised due to our limited understanding of them. Perhaps we’ve been unfairly judged ourselves.
Jesus sets a high standard for his followers, reminding us to refrain from judgement and instead embrace compassion, grace, and understanding. Let us always return to his teachings whenever our thoughts are clouded by judgement, and during those times may we in humility recognise our own imperfections.
Challenge: Is there someone in your community who you could get to know better? Strike up a conversation with them or invite them for a cup of tea or coffee.
Prayer: Lord, may my heart and mind never be clouded by judgement, and may my words and actions always mirror your love, grace, and understanding.
