Word For The Day (54)

"Stop judging by mere appearances, and make a right judgment." 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 man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart." His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of man; the LORD delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love. "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. John 7:24, 1 Samuel 16:7, Psalm 147:10-11, Isaiah 55:8, Psalm 139:23-24 NIV
