Never to Judge

   Let us take an adventure. Imagine that we just finished getting off of a plane and we are now at a new city that we do not really know. So we decide to take a stroll of the town and absorb the atmosphere of the city, to learn the culture and people.
   The first person we see is a man in a nice suit, and we check our pockets and realize that we have absolutely no money. So we ask the businessman if we could have just a minute amount of money to get through the day. He tells you that he has absolutely no money and gives you the impression that he does not make a lot of money from whatever job that he has.
   Then you see a man that has ripped jeans, an old faded t- shirt, and hair that has not been trimmed in what seems to be months. You walk right pass him and ask him for nothing, although you find our later that he is the richest and most generous man in the entire town!
   A fatal mistake as Christians that we can make is to judge people solely on their appearance, especially for the worse. Imagine how many more opportunities we would have to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ if we would never let our judgement get in the way? I challenge you monitor yourself this week to avoid unfair judgement, in the hopes that you may better spread the Hope and Love of Jesus Christ!
