People often speak of God being even-handed. God is not even-handed. God is biased, in favor of the weak, of the despised.

Isn't it amazing that we are all made in God's image, and yet there is so much diversity among his people?

We may be surprised at the people we find in heaven. God has a soft spot for sinners. His standards are quite low.

Like when you sit in front of a fire in winter — you are just there in front of the fire. You don't have to be smart or anything. The fire warms you.

And every human being is precious.

We may be surprised at the people we find in heaven. God has a soft spot for sinners. His standards are quite low.
