I’m slowly learning to make myself blind to how others offend me and leave the judgment to God, while focusing on scripture as the standard to measure myself by.

This is very scriptural.  Love is not easily offended.  You are walking on the road that is taking you towards more and more love shown in a tangible way by not noticing the offenses of others.  I believe that God will reward you for recognizing that this is the way he would have you walk.  Bravo!
