I Samuel 16:7 ” …but the Lord looks at the heart.”

God hears what isn’t spoken and understands what’s not explained. That’s because God’s love doesn’t depend on our words or thoughts but what’s in our heart. Psalm 139:23 says, “Search me, O God, and know my heart.” which is an axion describing that God’s standards are inward, not outward…so we need to trust and invite Him to probe our innermost thoughts. For He fully understands our silence…hearing what we cannot express in words. So when words fail you, know God is already listening…and that even your silence is a form of worshipful prayer…expressing surrender and dependence in Him.
