Read Romans 14:10 – You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat.
To wear the robe of criticism is to put yourself on a throne. There you sit on that seat and express your negative thoughts to the world. The biggest problem is that your throne is lonely and unloved. Not only that, it is a mirage in your mind that makes you view yourself as better than others. Bitter old men are molded from critical young men. As a man of character, replace those critical thoughts and words with power words of praise. You have to look for good things about people to see them. When people receive your compliments and not your criticism they will love you and lift you up. Men who have learned the power of praise are surrounded by people who want to be close to them.
