He comes not to condemn you, not to point all your mistakes, he comes to lift you, to restore you, to free you, to set you on new path. “He stoops down from heavens to look at the Earth.” Not just that he brings you out, but he honors you.

It is easy to judge people. "Why isn't he more disciplined?" As you know God as he comes down to lift people, then you can be a lifter. Where would you be without mercy? If we were in their shoes, we don't know what decisions we'd make.

Many shame-based individuals struggle to judge for themselves what's reasonable. Is it ok to think this? It is okay to feel that? In this state of doubt, there's often a temptation to defer to the judgments of others to let others to the thinking for them.
