Dear Ellen;
 
I am cheering your letter to the doves about not judging on appearances!  You keep on witnessing and strengthening your heart of evangelism and love for those who are commonly disregarded and judged.  Jesus Himself said that what we do to the least of these we have done to Him.  And you DID plant seeds of love, compassion and acceptance to those people you witnessed to and befriended.  Remember that one sows and another reaps.
 
People, we have hardly any time left to reach out to this lost and dying world.  Please, please let us stop looking down our noses at the unredeemed, the Christians whose minds are not yet renewed (because they have a habit like smoking or cursing, the Lord is patient and a gentleman), our brothers and sisters who need a hand up and a hug, those who are covered with tats or brands, bald or hairy, clean or unkempt, sick or well, rich or poor.  Jesus died on the cross for all of us and He looks at our hearts, not the hearts engraved on the arm.  Thanks for you post!
 
Love,
Dawn
