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 a man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. I Samuel 16:7
As they looked for a new king to succeed Saul, they would have never thought of the little shepherd boy named David. He had a heart for God, but didn't fit the picture the people had in mind. Most people make judgments about people by the way they look, when we all should be examining the hearts of people. That is the way God sees us, and we need to see it God's way. Let's give people a second look, watching for the spirit and heart for God.
