1 Samuel 16:7

But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.

1 Samuel 16:7 presents a profound truth about God's perception of beauty: "But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." This verse highlights that while humans tend to judge by external appearances, God sees the heart. Outward beauty, stature, or any physical trait may captivate us, but they do not define true worth in God's eyes. What God values is the character, integrity, and humility of the heart. This teaches us not to be swayed by superficial judgments but to strive for a heart that is pure, humble, and aligned with God's will. It challenges us to focus less on outward appearance and more on cultivating inner beauty—the qualities that reflect God’s nature, such as kindness, humility, and faithfulness. God’s standard of beauty is far deeper and more lasting than what the world deems attractive.
