WWJD

When a patient walks in escorted by a police officer, instead of her loved ones.
When she walks in with metal shackles instead of shiny jewelry.
When she is wearing an orange jump suit instead of designer jeans.
When her reputation proceeds her before you even meet.
When she is presumed guilty before given a chance to be proven innocent.
When she complains about the pain in her leg and it doesn’t compare to the grief of a family that no longer has a wife and child amongst them.
When the rolled eyes and hushed whispers are hard to ignore.

In that moment, in that instant, when everyone around you is passing judgement… what do you do? What do you do when its cooler to act a certain way? What do you do when you are sitting there looking into her eyes, doing her a service?

Therefore, let us stop passing judgement on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.
~Romans 14:13
