Perspective

God doesn’t look at things like humans do. Humans see only what is visible to the eyes, but the Lord sees into the heart. ~ 1 Samuel 16:7b (CEB)

Then the angel told Mary, “Don’t be afraid! God is pleased with you..." ~ Luke 1:30 (CEV)
Lord, you see things in us that no one else sees. You understand things about us that even we can't understand about ourselves. You see how we all fit into your plan. Help me to relax and trust in your perspective. Amen.
