It is so easy to be judgmental of others. We don't know their struggles. We don't know their situation. Most of all, we don't know their hearts. When we are judgmental, we erect a barrier between others and ourselves. We often spread that judgmental impression to others in gossip. Our stubbornness to only view them with a judgmental spirit erects a barrier, a stumbling block, which can cause them to become discouraged and stumble.
Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way.
— Romans 14:13

Dear Lord please be with our attitude toward others. Help us be more patient with the failures of others, just as you are patient with ours. Forgive us for not being more of an encouragement to those who are weak and struggling. Forgive us for sometimes being a hindrance to others. Please use us to be a blessing. In Jesus' name. Amen.
