SEEING THROUGH HIS EYES

Read: 1 Chronicles 28:9

"And you, my son Solomon, acknowledge the God of your father, and serve him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the LORD searches every heart and understands every motive behind the thoughts." ( 1 Chronicles 28:9 ) NIV

Thoughts for Today

Our natural tendency as human beings is to be attracted to sameness and resist all that is different. We congregate with people who are like us-the same color, culture, social level or income bracket. We tend to mistrust and even resist anyone who is different.

We often judge others by what we see on the outside. We lump everyone from a particular racial or cultural group in one basket. We shun each other and even engage wars against each other based solely on racial identity.

Aren't you glad Jesus doesn't see us that way? He loves us regardless of our race or culture or career or income. He searches every heart. He is interested in what's inside.

Consider this ...


Let's ask Jesus to help us search other people's hearts and see them through his eyes. As God's creation ... designed in his image. Jesus gave his life for all people of all races and cultures. He sees everyone through eyes of love and compassion. He looks beyond faults to needs. It's time for us to let go of our prejudices and see others as Jesus does.
