Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) affects many millions of adults. It is more than shyness. SAD includes an acute fear of being judged. An individual with SAD struggles with everyday tasks like talking to people at work or school because he is terrified that he is constantly being evaluated. Even if you don’t have that disorder, perhaps you have experienced that uncomfortable feeling that others are watching you, trying to find something to criticize. We don’t want others to judge us. It is bad enough listening to the voice inside our head whispering that we aren’t worthy. How do we overcome the fear of judgment? It begins by realizing that only one person's opinion ultimately matters—the Judge. Everyone is going to live forever in one of two very different places. Where you spend eternity depends on a judgment that Jesus will render. This week, we see why his judgment need not trigger any anxiety. Judgment day is something we can joyfully anticipate. We can live free from the fear of judgment.
