Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover

I have to admit, I am quick to draw up an internal profile sketch of someone when I meet them basing it on what I see on the outside. Part of it is a protective mechanism that I have and in some ways it is smart to prepare yourself for what might happen. Let's be honest, in most cases if it has scales it is a fish, if it has wings it can fly, and if it has fleas keep a protective distance.

However, there are many times when my internal sketches are wrong. This doesn't mean I am rude, arrogant, or any other sort, on the contrary I tend to attract to the rejected crowed. That is where Jesus spent his time and it seems fit that I do the same.

I suppose what I am getting at is that it is a fresh breath of air when someone comes along and completely contradicts the stereotype.
