Oftentimes, we make assumptions while lacking the facts! And, it is quite easy to make assumptions without knowledge.
(In all thy getting, get understanding!!!)
📖
Proverbs 4:7
🎬📽️🎞️
Watching the preview to a movie does NOT make anyone an expert in retelling every scene. There are events that led up to that scene, and there are events that happened after that scene. And, so it is in life - witnessing a person at their weakest point may not be the totality of who they are.
Remember that it is difficult to tell a complete story📚 with only a few facts. 📝Oftentimes, in life, we want to take a glimpse of someone and formulate incorrect presumptions about that person’s character and lifestyle. What we fail to realize is that we observed them at a very low point - a time when there was no glamour and no glory. We witnessed their blemishes and their flaws - no accessories 📿, no decor, no makeup💄 , no touch-ups.
Not only do we formulate presumptions based on a glimpse, but we also formulate negative thoughts based on biased opinions shared by others🤫. What we must understand is that presumptions and opinions are NOT facts! And even if we actually observed that person in a vulnerable state, that may or may not be their reality. Many times, it is only a snapshot of who they are at that very moment. There are behind the scene events that the public never sees.
the behind-the-scenes struggle🤼♀️,
the internal demons😈,
the silent battles⚔, and
the midnight tears 😢,
- you just might withhold your judgment and even apologize for the assumptions and unsolicited comments that you freely shared with others about someone that you really didn’t/don’t know.
Let us remember to pray ye one for another 🙏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏿🙏🏻.
BELIEVERS - Some of us will have to repent for presumptions that we have made about other people.
