Grace for your spirit December 1, 2010

Grace for your spirit
But the Lord said to Samuel, "Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart." I Samuel 16:7

When Samuel was out to select the future king of Israel, they almost overlooked David because didn't fit the mold they had in mind. King Saul had been a big warrior, and David was a short shepherd boy. God was looking at the heart. Today, if we would spend the time, effort, and money on our "heart appearance", that we spend on our hip and lip, we would look a whole lot better to God. Also we would be better equipped to serve Him.

the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
