What that truly matters
words.actions.expression
"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." " 1 Samuel 16:7
The way the lord look at our hearts, we sometimes need not be that mindful with our words when communicating with him. For he know our unspoken words, he is able to discern fully every heart motive. If we love him, he knows. If we love other things more than him, he knows too. If we are struggling but we really want to obey, he will know it too.
And so we say, it's about what is not the outside but the inside that matters.
Yes true.
However, taking it from other perspective. Precisely that man looks a the outward appearance, shouldn't we be mindful of our physical actions. Our words, our actions our expressions. For we are call to "honor other before self" in other words, to serve each other.
To simply say that "oh, as long as my heart is okay", and this be frivolous in our speech, to blabber without much thought, what good can it do? Truth is outward appreance do matter, not in a way that you want to impress, but we all need to serve others to the best that we can.
Unintentionally, I have overlook this area, and conveyed messages which is unhelpful to those around me. I feel deeply apologetic. I thus repent and decide to improve on my words, actions and expressions.
Our apperance, really matters.
"May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you"
Skin deep is but skin deep.
Above all, it is him that truly matters.
Chloe is not love
My maker is.
I enjoy the beauty of which my maker allows.
Yet, it's really the maker whom I really love.
I will grow =)
