While talking to Patti (Patches1414) on the phone this morning, she recited a poem that she'd written a long time ago. I thought it to be "post worthy", so I asked her if she minded if I brought it here to share with you all... since her computer is on the blink & she can't come here & do it "in person".
(Of course, she gave me permission.) Here it is:

Judge Not
Don't judge anyone, it's not up to you
to condemn or to criticize.
God carries no grudge, so let Him be the judge
of how they measure up in His eyes.

If you try to judge you'd better be sure
that the scale is honest and true,
For God may decide to use as a guide
the very same scale to judge you.
