In the ancient story of Shmuel (Samuel) choosing a new king, the prophet looks at the strongest, tallest, most handsome son of Jesse and thinks to himself Surely the Lord’s anointed stands here! But a voice whispers to him: No. Do not consider his appearance or his height. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but God looks only at the heart.” This astounding notion; that our outward appearance could literally mean nothing to the Creator; goes against every instinct of human nature. It makes no sense to the human mind. And that is why I believe it to be true.
