Thoughts / Opinions

When we are made in God's eyes, the intent is for us to be pure. However, it is natural for human to sin. If we are sinners, then what right do we have to judge others or to offer our opinion of others? Roles in society are put in place to judge a person on trial due to seriousness of their crime. Sisters and brothers are put in place to judge whether their fellow sibling had veered off the recommended Christian walk. We understand that our daily decision is to be for the audience of One, not for the audience of human. Then why does opinions of family/close friends matter when it comes to making life changing decisions? Is it due to man-set expectations? At the same time, we are called to submit to authority and to honor our parents. Naturally, parents will want the best for their children (I hope its not to use the child to fulfill self unmet aspirations), and thus we should obey them if it's in line with God's plan? What's God's plan for me? Will I be brave enough to step up? Will I be even ready to commit to the next stage of life?
