People are quick to judge and keen to lay the blame for “this and that” when it is possible that they have a mighty plank in their own eye that blinds them from seeing the real truth.
Here is a story that is being put on Facebook pages that gives an example of laying blame, false accusations (and possibly through our own grief trying to hurt others):
A heart touching story:
Do NOT JUDGE So Quickly!
A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He answered the call asap, changed his clothes and went directly to the surgery block. He found the boy’s mother going and coming in the hall waiting for the doctor.
On seeing him, the mother yelled:”Why did you take all this time to come? Don’t you know that my son’s life is in danger? Don’t you have the sense of responsibility? “
The doctor smiled and said: “I am sorry, I wasn’t in the hospital and I came the fastest I could after receiving the call.. And now, I wish you’d calm down so that I can do my work” “Calm down?! What if your sonwas in this room right now, would you calm down? said the mother angrily. The doctor smiled again and replied: Doctors cannot prolong lives. Go and intercede for your son, we will do our best by God’s grace””Giving advice when we’re not concerned is so easy” Murmured the mother.
The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy,”Thank goodness!, your son is saved!”And without waiting for the mother’s reply he carried on his way running. “If you have any question, ask the nurse!!”
“Why is he so arrogant? He couldn’t wait some minutes so that I ask about my son’s state” commented the mother when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.
The nurse answered, tears coming down her face, “His son died yesterday in a road accident, he was in the burial when we called him for your son’s surgery.
And now that he saved your son’s life, he left running to finish his son’s funeral.”
Moral:- Never Judge Anyone on your own way. Because You never know how their life is and what they’re going through.
“Have you ever asked those you judge what their view is?”
