Man did you see that girl? Oooh did you see that guy? Why is it that we place so much emphasis on the physical appearance of people and things...In the beginning that was the downfall of Adam and Eve... with the serpent.. When they saw that the fruit looked good and that it was good for food they ate it... When they saw...
Let's look again at David for a moment "up on the roof" when he looked over and saw Bathsheba and that she looked good he sent his servant to bring her to him... The servant told David.. you mean you want me to go get Uriah the Hittite's wife and bring her to you??? David saw that she looked good...
Looks can be deceiving..'Don't judge a book by its cover!" But we usually do...I know I'm guilty of it sometimes...Isn't it great to know GOd doesn't look on the outside but on the inside.
God tells Samuel in I Samuel 16:7, "Don't look at his height or appearance... I don't do that and I don't want you to either... Man looks on the inside but I judge people according to their hearts."
Let's strive to be more like God and look at the whole person instead of just looking at their looks.
Prayer of the Day: Jesus help me to look on the inside instead of the outside of an individual.
Keep Lookin' Up!
