Don't Judge A Book By It's Cover

by Kay Heitsch

How often do we judge people by the way they look?

This week I was talking to some guys at Planet Fitness. They told me about their boss who went to buy a new car. Little did the salespeople know, but this man was worth a lot of money.

The day he decided to buy his new car, he walked in looking like a bum off the street. The first dealership he stopped in totally ignored him and treated him like he wasn't worth their time. He left with a smile on his face.

Later that day, he walked into another dealership, looking the same way. The sale's people greeted him with kindness and respect.

It wasn't long before this man wrote out a check for almost $200,000.00 on a brand new car!

There's a Bible text that tells us how to treat strangers."Don't forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!" Hebrews 13:2

Don't judge a book by its cover! This man was not an angel, but you never know who just might be.
