JUDGING GOD
“Pain results from a judgment you have made about a thing. Remove the judgment and the pain disappears.” ― Neale Donald Walsch
In his book, Conversations With God, Neale Donald Walsh was seeking answers due to his frustrations in life. The thing is that we all have moments of frustration and questioning. There are many people who give up on the concept of God when the going gets tough. Many feel that God has abandoned them or was never there to begin with. I have listened to many recently who were staunch followers and believers and then they weren’t and not only did they renounce their faith but they set out to tell others that God wasn’t real.
Dear Angels, I have had my own moments of feeling abandoned by God and hurled insults and anger toward what I perceived as the Creator – the highest being that exists. I never entertained a thought that God didn’t exist but I sure was mad at Him for not meeting my expectations and allowing me to struggle and almost die. I didn’t hold back when expressing myself and, truth be told, it was the best thing I could have done at the time. I needed to release the anger, the fear, the confusion and I came to realize that it was okay that I did so. Up to that point in my life I had perceived God as a judge who had the power to condemn me to an eternity of separation from Him. When I was done with my rant and had not been struck down by this mighty Being, I realized that I had been given an opportunity to use my free will to express myself without being judged or harmed. There is something freeing about that. It made me step back and examine my belief system and led me to a closer relationship with the God of my new understanding.
Dear Ones, pain comes in many forms and is often the product of a judgment you've made—your mind labeling something as "wrong," "unfair," or "unbearable." This judgment anchors the pain in place, keeping it alive within you. When you step back and release the need to judge, viewing the situation with neutrality or compassion instead, the grip of pain begins to loosen. Without judgment, pain loses its foundation, and healing flows naturally. Letting go of judgment is an act of grace, freeing both the heart and the spirit. Pain, at its core, is deeply tied to the meaning you assign to your experiences. When you encounter a situation and judge it, that judgment becomes the lens through which you feel and experience pain. It’s as though you bind yourselves to suffering by holding tightly to the belief that things should be different than they are. This doesn’t mean dismissing genuine hurt or pretending difficult situations don’t affect you. Rather, it’s about recognizing that the intensity of pain is amplified by your judgments of what happened. These judgments arise from expectations, conditioning, or fears, creating a barrier to peace. The event itself is neutral—your mind assigns its value, and in doing so, you trap yourselves in a loop of suffering. When you learn to release judgment and embrace neutrality, the energy you once devoted to resisting reality becomes available for healing and growth. Acceptance does not mean approval; it means allowing the moment to be as it is without labeling it as good or bad. This opens the heart to compassion, forgiveness, and understanding. By softening your judgments, you create space for the pain to dissolve naturally. Like a cloud passing through the sky, it moves when you no longer cling to it. In this space, you discover that peace is always available—not as something you earn, but as something revealed when you let go of resistance. True liberation comes not from changing the external world, but from transforming the way you perceive and respond to it. The psalmist wrote, “He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.”
Dear Angels, thank you. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise be open to experiences without judging them.
