Respect Towards our Neighbors


Hello, today I will blog about a YouTube video I recently watched. This video was about a homeless man informing the public about his everyday. This video shows the struggles some of our brothers and sisters around the world face each day. Also this man shows his feelings about being called a bum. He feels he is treated as an object and not a human being.
This video made me think about the way I treat others around me. Sometimes we do not realize how harmful we can actually be. We need to be respectful to all members of humanity. Jesus never discriminated between groups of people. Jesus treated everyone equally. He helped the sick when no one would even come near them. He talked to women openly in a time where that was looked down upon.
Everyone was made as an image of God. We should treat strangers the same way we treat our family.We should treat others the way we want to be treated. If it was us out on that street corner asking for money would we want to be called a bum or spat upon? No, we would want to be treated normal. We should always look to treat everyone with the utmost respect. Jesus is a shining example of how to treat others. We should treat them the way we want to be treated.
