Jonas, I found this to be an interesting story. Judgement of any kind is unimportant here in my mind; it was just expressing normal human foibles... which is certainly okay in God's eyes.

Oh, I know, Beth:) I say this tongue-in-cheek.

Yes, I was aware of that fact, Jonas. But I am serious about the 'no-judgement' thing, which can be a reality even when expressed with tongue-in-cheek. We humans do tend to judge and condemn ourselves for the smallest things that we later realize we should have done differently. Oh well... that's life.

I ❤️ this. But beg to differ that you are an awful man…you were just being human. The real choice is you did it out of love…that’s what God sees. Namaste!

Thank you, Connie! I call myself an 'awful man' tongue-in-cheek as usual:)

Thanks for the reminder to check in on my "good works" motive. Mine isn't a one-up-man-ship issue, it's "people will see how wonderful I am thinking of others" issue. LOL
