Greetings to all; as we progress through this week, let us make sure we are for God and that the image we show is genuine.
We are told in life always to make a good first impression. Whether a person's good looks or whatever impresses us, there can be a problem with those first impressions. The first image others see is only some of it. The reality check of who any person is comes from what is on the inside.
1 Samuel 16:6–7 (NIV)
6 When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and thought, "Surely the LORD's anointed stands here before the LORD."
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 man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
Lesson: It is not what we look like. The measure of a person comes from what is on the inside.
