Remember the JST to Matthew 7:1--<BR/><BR/>"Judge not unrighteously, that ye be not judged: but judge righteous judgment."<BR/><BR/>We're <I>supposed</I> to judge. We've been given the ability to judge and we're told to use it (Moroni 7: 15-18), but to use it well.<BR/><BR/>But yeah, I agree that that balance can be difficult. Humility is definitely key. I guess the way to make sure you're sufficiently humble is to make sure that you know that you're not, and always be working on it. It's like Bill and Ted so astutely reminded us before they met Socrates: "The only true wisdom lies in knowing you know nothing.... Dude, that's us!"Cabezahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999687733029976277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23935428.post-33127545065331120642007-04-16T11:42:00.000-06:002007-04-16T11:42:00.000-06:00This is a great read.

I agree that the solution is humility, but humility is one of those illusive attributes that is hard to detect and measure. How can I know if I am sufficiently humble? Can I ever know if someone else is sufficiently humble? If I ever think that I have attained the level of sufficient humility, does that mean that I'm not humble at all? (If I think I have it, I've already lost it.) It seems that you can't really work directly at improving your humility, but it is more of a byproduct of love. Love is also hard to directly work on, but in turn is a byproduct of service. So go serve!Randallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00926078733084451726noreply@blogger.com
