No favoritism

Don’t pervert justice. Don’t show favoritism to either the poor or the great. Judge on the basis of what is right. ~ Leviticus 19:15 (MSG)

My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism. ~ James 2:1 (NIV)

KEY THOUGHT:

Favoritism is inconsistent with our faith.

PRAYER:

I'm grateful, God, that you care about all people -- that you have shown favor to someone as undeserving as me. I confess that I too easily let public opinion influence me. Help me to recognize justice and fairness. I'm going to focus on pleasing you, for yours is the opinion that counts. Amen.
