Just a Random Thought: Be Humble, Don't be Self-Righteous

Whatever other people think of you or whatever you let other people see you do, at the end of the day, it is your personal relationship with our God that matters most.

It is just in time after the Easter celebration to be reminded that we shouldn’t judge others, especially just by basing on whether they go to church or not; serve in communities or not; openly help others or not, et al. 

We should always keep in our hearts and gratefully remember that it is God who forgives us first even before we ask Him to and who calls us to come before Him, despite our sinfulness... He sees past our wrongdoings and our history. Whatever each of us does, it is only God who is entitled to judge each one.

God has His own right time and right way touching our hearts. Don’t feel superior over others just because you attend Mass, pray, or tithe... instead, let us learn from each other and help and inspire each other to live humbly and uprightly according to what God tells us to do (Bible), and most importantly, unceasingly thank God, thirst for His words, and humbly put them into practice.

Others are called to serve, some to preach, still others to undergo trials now in order to teach others by their experiences and bless others later, et al. God does not look so much at the greatness of our actions, nor even at their difficulty, but by the love & manner in which we perform them and the sincerity of our hearts. 

Whatever other people think of you or whatever you let other people see you do, at the end of the day, it is your personal relationship with our God that matters most.

It is between God and you. God reads your mind and sees your heart.
