God is the Potter and We are the Clay.

Samuel 16:7 states that God looks at the heart of man, while man sees our outward appearance. As humans we often judge each other based on skin color, how a person is dressed and how much money they may or may not have. We even get overrun by commercials,  and magazine advertisements showing us how we should look. I just believe that God made us in his image just like the bible states but we allow the enemy(Satan) to cause distinctions, distractions, and divisions in our lives. Pay attention to babies and young children. They do not notice color or body and facial features. We do not become aware of things like that until someone else tells us that such and such is ugly or pretty or cute. Who came up with this? Somehow I believe we are dishonoring our maker. It was his decision to create us and he made us in his image. So who are we to dislike another human being based on their outward appearance. We might as well go to God and ask why? No one has the authority to question his decisions so we also do not have the right to dislike someone based on their outward appearance.
