"Forgive them, for they know not what they do"

With all that's going on in the world at the moment, it's easy to slip into having judgmental thoughts about people.

When I notice I'm judging someone, I remind myself, 'I am in God and God is in me. Therefore Love is my essence, my truth and my being'.

Then, as I think of the person I'm judging, I affirm, 'You are in God and God is in you. Love is your essence, your truth and your being'. I send them that energy of seeing who they really are, beneath all the ego and bluster.

This doesn't mean condoning unkindness in others... but it is a reminder that, whatever they may do, they too are children of God with that divine Essence within them.

Of course, this applies equally to politicians and world leaders and to those who 'push our buttons' much closer to home.
