they’re all in shock. No one thought they’d be seeing you

I've heard this a few times. My take was I can't judge anyone any way any where as I'm a sinner. How about you? I guess you'll be bewildered reading this - ponder if you'll.

Heaven's Surprise

I was shocked, confused, bewildered as I entered Heaven’s door,
Not by the beauty of it all, nor the lights or its decor.

But it was the folks in Heaven who made me sputter and gasp–
The thieves, the liars, the sinners, the alcoholics and the trash.

There stood the kid from seventh grade who swiped my lunch money twice.
Next to him was my old neighbor who never said anything nice.

Herb, who I always thought was rotting away in Hell,
Was sitting pretty on cloud nine, looking incredibly well.

I nudged Jesus, ‘What’s the deal? I would love to hear your take.
How’d all these sinners get up here? God must’ve made a mistake.

‘And why’s everyone so quiet, so somber – give me a clue.’
‘Hush, child,’ He said, ‘they’re all in shock. No one thought they’d be seeing you.’

~Poem By Rod Hemphill

You just may be surprised at how the ones you see fit to judge judges you. And, the way we judge others says more about ourselves than the ones we judge. At the end of the day, there is only one true judge...and it's not any of us.

Don't be a person that stands in judgement, be a person that is a walking example! ?#‎JS2TA?
