Beloved,
The people that complain about being judged are the people that live defeated.
They rebuke correction and any form of exhortation.
They want to live everyday like its Friday, and that’s not reality.
We are judged by everything that we do; such as annual reviews of our job performance.
Yet, there is a big difference between being condemned for immoral behavior, and being judged (corrected).
Our perspective is often warped by past hurts stemming from childhood and years, of being abused mentally, physically and verbally, which can take a toll on the mind of an individual.
Genuine love incorporates correction, not abuse or criticism.
Beloved,
Everything in our lives should be proportioned by what is needed, instead of what is wanted.
A drug addict wants a fix, and an alcoholic wants a drink, but it is not beneficial.
We have to mature into children of GOD, instead of brats.
The WORD of GOD did not produce the difficulties in your life or the heartache that you suffered.
In fact, the WORD of GOD produces an opposite effect if you learn to love correction.
Only the Love of God can bring about change in you and for you; it is the only sure thing that can perfect you for his good work.
Correction produces discipline in your life, and we all need that.
I pray you discern the difference.
