Written by Mark D. Roberts, a contemporary author.
Our culture is obsessed with appearance. We experience this all the time. This obsession can easily dominate our lives. So much concern about outward appearance can distract us from what matters most: the state of our heart. When we realize that God knows our hearts, we are motivated to pay more attention to what’s on the inside than what’s on the outside.
But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” [1 Samuel 16:7]
