Jesus did not rank people from good to bad, desirable to undesirable or by any other measure. For Jesus people are either lost or found. We have all been made in the image of God - we all bear the markings of our Maker. We have all been made for Him, and we have been made to be fulfilled by Him.
Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4 reminds us of how Jesus sees not only this lady but you, me and all those around us. How does Jesus' view of us change how we see ourselves and how we relate to Him? How will His view of others affect how we see them and how we treat them?
The bottom line is that we were all made for Jesus - no exceptions.
