Character Over Clout
Scripture
1 Samuel 16:7 (NIV) - But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
Reflection
God promotes what the eye can’t see. Applause is loud; integrity is lasting. Who you are off-stage builds what can stand on stage.
Reflect + Journal
- Where did I protect image over integrity?
- What private habit strengthens my inner life?
Sacred Step
Strengthen one hidden practice (prayer, confession, accountability).
Prayer
Lord, build me deep so I don’t break wide. Amen.
