It's what's on the inside that counts.

Have you ever met someone and immediately think you know their character; their type? We are typically too quick to judge others when looking on the outside only.

If we all had a tiny window into the heart of everyone we meet, we may be surprised at what we see.

Physical looks don’t show us a person’s value, their character, integrity or even their faithfulness to God. Outward qualities are, by definition, superficial. Moral and spiritual considerations are far more important to God.

So the next time you make your assumption as to the character of another, stop and reflect on what God sees.

Most of the Bible heroes were far from perfect, but God saw their heart. He knew what they were capable of and that they had a heart for God.

What’s behind the window of your heart today? Does your heart reflect your character?

When God looks at our hearts, He sees our faithfulness, our true character, and our value as individuals.

1 Samuel 16:7 - “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.”
