The Battle Of The Judgments

Man's first impulse is to judge a person based on the feedback they receive first, which is appearance. To get to know a person's personality and heart takes much more time. The problem is that basing a judgment on appearances can be very inaccurate. This reality has to be taken into consideration when choosing friends in a new school. When I moved back to Colombia to live after living in the States for four and a half years, I had to acknowledge the fact that while making new friends, I had to keep an eye for people's actions and reactions to daily happenings to be able to observe each candidate's personality. In this way, when I approached someone with hopes of becoming their friend, I already had some type of knowledge regarding their personality. Befriending based only on appearances can be risky, because by spending time with the wrong person, can turn you into the person you tried so hard to avoid. 

God is the type of being who seeks someone to make his anointed based on their heart. Looks are only god to look at, but a noble heart has much greater potential. Our difference between God (one of many), is then that "the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart." (Sam. 1 16.7) We must all try to mimic God in his method for judgment so that we can become acquainted to the people we can learn good from.
