Being Attentive To One Another

Jesus demands that we to MORE if we are to enter his Kingdom: "Unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven." (Mt 5:20). Noted for keeping every "jot and tittle" of the Law, to surpass the is a might big challenge. So it is with simply "not killing" but not judging as well...that which goes on in the mind and often finds its expression in words and deeds...To avoid falling into the judgement trap, it might be well to be attentive to the person we are prone to judge, find out what's going on behind the scenes, and then treat him or her accordingly.   We will find less judgement and more love and compassion.
