"give me your eyes so I can see"

So this morning, I actually had time to read the Bible...which is incredibly amazing considering I am almost always running late in the mornings. But I was reading a little more in 1 Samuel and came across this:

[But God told Samuel, "Looks aren't everything. Don't be impressed with his looks and stature. I've already eliminated him. God judges persons differently than humans do. Men and women look at the face; God looks into the heart."]
1 Samuel 16:7

With each passing year, I realize just how shallow I was growing up and still can be to this day. I just pray that as I draw closer to the Lord, I will be able to see people's hearts first. I want to see people the way God does.
