"He looks like a douche"
"She has no morals"
Phrases that are so common today. I honestly don't think I can go a day without hearing someone say those words. Sometimes I catch myself saying those words about people behind there back. This is where I out myself to you guys, ha.
So in the beginning of the school year there were obviously a few people that right as I saw them these words came out of my mouth:
"She looks like a skank"

"I'll never be friends with him because he looks like a tool"
"He looks like he has no self-respect for himself"
Sound familiar? It wasn't until a week ago did I come across these three people. It wasn't until a week ago did I come across these three people in the same place.
Last Wednesday I was leading worship at my school's "Youth Group" called FISH.
Boy was I in for an awakening that night.
That girl who I said looked like a skank. She was on her knees alright, but she was on her knees worshiping to God. From where I was - it was genuine. She was being real.
That guy who I said would never become my friend. Probably one of the guys that I'm really close to here on campus. He's not a tool one bit.
The guy who doesn't have self-respect for himself. BOY WAS I WRONG. He just dresses different and I have yet to meet someone who is so comfortable in their own skin. If anything at all I have self-respect issues compared to this kid.
All I'm saying is, it's funny how God uses people to let us know otherwise.

"God alone, who gave the law, is the Judge. He alone has the power to save or to destroy. So what right do you have to judge your neighbor?"
