Day 37-Look for the best in everybody

"If you wait long enough, people will surprise and impress you....But in the end, people will show you their good side. Almost everybody has a good side. Just keep waiting. It will come out."

- Jon Snoddy as quoted by Pausch

Someone once told met that no one thinks they are a bad person. That has stuck with me for years. If no one thinks they are a bad person, then they must see some good in themselves. I should try to look for that good too.

Jesus looked for the good in people: prostitutes, sinners, tax collectors, drunks. He is about forgiveness and waiting for people to see the light. As a believer, I need to follow suit.

--God, please help me to wait for the good in people. Help me not make snap judgements about people or discount them. Amen.
