Day 21 of the Bible in 90 Days

Scripture: 1Samuel 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 man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

Observation: It is easy to get caught up in how people look and make character judgments based on that.

But the Lord looks well beyond that into our hearts, where he can see the truth.

Application: What is my heart like? And how are my children’s hearts growing? Is there beauty and strength and a spirit to follow the Lord no matter what in there always or sometimes?

Prayer: Lord, you show us repeatedly through the Bible how critical it is to love and serve you with all our heart and all our soul. Please guide me in keeping my heart, and the hearts of my children, in good order. Keep us from focusing too much on external factors that don’t matter to you and instead focus on serving you and loving as you would have us love.

    We are on target with our reading tonight a little ahead b/c it was hard to stop.

    Is it me? I actually feel something coming over me as the readings continue… almost like a veil of some sort…

    Forgive me, not sure how to explain… but my days seem different. My pain is there, just as bad, but I seem to get through it better *with the bones in my spine and my neck. My head is clearer. My son stills immediately when I read… he listens. Although he has been incredibly sick, we are somehow more relaxed. The autism seems to subside at times where I can see straight through to his soul.

    I think I need to put more trust in the Lord… it helps…. the cancer, the pain, the autism… it helps.

    Thank you for somehow reaching out to us and allowing us to be a part of this…
