Jesus Looks At Our Heart

1 Samuel 16:7 (New International Version)
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."


But You
Written by Ruth Graham

It isn’t your gold or silver,
your talents great or small,
your voice, or your gift of drawing,
or the crowd you go with at all.

It isn’t your friends or your pastimes,
your looks or your clothes so gay.
It isn’t your home or your family,
or even the things you say.

It isn’t your choice of amusements,
It isn’t the life you lead.
It isn’t the thing you prize the most,
or the books you like to read.

No it isn’t the things you have dear,
or the things you like to do.
The Master is searching deeper…
He seeks not yours but you.

It’s your heart that Jesus longs for,
your will to be made His own,
with self on the cross forever,
and Jesus alone on the throne.
