A Prayer about Judging Others.

Lord
Why is it that we humans
like to judge each other ?
You know,
I make comments
on almost every aspect of life.
I comment
on the weather
on my neighbours
on my work colleagues
on my bosses
on our politicians.
And I listen
to the comments
of others
and often judge them
sometimes too harshly.
Lord
I may not pull out
a base ball bat
but I know how to use words
that will bruise
I am an expert in helping
other join in the abuse.
Forgive me Lord
When I don't listen
When I think
I know more than I do
and I do more harm than I'll ever know.
Help me to be patient
to consider my attitudes
my thoughts
my actions.
Help me to understand
your call to serve
without judging
those i am serving.
