A University of Manitoba study has found that , Justice is blinded by good looks. Given the choice of attractive or unattractive suspects, people tend to choose the unattractive as the probable culprits. The study found that attorneys and judges could also be swayed in favor of the attractive. Not so with God. How we look, what we wear, our gifts to charities or our Bank account do not impress Him. Because, as the Bible tells us, “man looks on the outward appearance, but God looks on the heart.” And when He looks, He sees that we are “desperately wicked.” The good news is that no matter what we look like, or how we dress, God loves all men and women exactly the same. We are told that “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son…” And this love, forgiveness cleansing and preparation for heaven is available to all who humbly, and sincerely ask for it.
