Seeing Only the Faults

 

There are some people who walk through God’s fair world, and in the midst of men and women whose lives shine with bright qualities and dazzling gems of character, and yet they have no eyes for any of these radiant beauties. But for every fault and blemish they have the sharpest vision. They judge uncharitably. They think evil where there is none. This is one of the things Christ condemns. We should train ourselves away from a habit of life so unchristian. We should seek to have eyes only for the beauty, not for the blemishes.
