Welcome back to part two with Dr. Jeff Wright. 1 Samuel 8 through 16.
Hank Smith· Host0:06
You'll both recognize this from President Uchtdorf. He says, "We simply have to stop judging others and replace judgmental thoughts and feelings with a heart full of love for God and his children. God is our Father. We are his children. We are all brothers and sisters. I don't know exactly how to articulate this point of not judging others with sufficient eloquence, passion, and persuasion to make it stick. I can quote scripture. I can try to expound doctrine, and I will even quote a bumper sticker I recently saw. It was attached to the back of a car whose driver appeared to be a little rough around the edges, but the words on the sticker taught an insightful lesson. It read, 'Don't judge me because I sin differently than you.'" Uh, Jeff, I think that's what you're talking about. The Spirit of God came upon him. That's great, and the child does it best, honestly. I remember one Christmas Eve, my son Mason, he's on a mission now. My son Mason, we were just taking the train. We went up to see the lights, I think, in Salt Lake, and we were gonna bring him back down. We were gonna take the train back here to Utah County, and as we're waiting for the train, there's this gruff-looking guy over there by himself. It's late on Christmas Eve. Uh, and of course, I thought, "I don't know what's going on over there." I was chatting with my wife, and she pointed, and she said, "Look," and there's my four-year-old boy walking over. "Hi."
