1 Samuel 16:7

1 Samuel 16:7 The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance but the Lord looks at the heart.

I know that outward appearances can often give you your first impression. But how many of us actually take the time to look deeper? To care about them? To remember that they are Gods creation also? That He loves them too? Because he does. Maybe that person that drives you crazy is actually the one that needs you the most. 

To care or not to care? If we decide not to care it could affect that person life. Not only their day. What if we all chose to care. To just smile at people we see on the street? To say hi to someone at school that normally doesn't get talked to? What if we tried to do something different? To change something? With God we can change the world.

Romans 8:31 What, then shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us who can be against us?

We have to get past the voice in our head that says "What can you do? You're just a stupid kid." We have to turn our ears toward Heaven. We have to try and portray God. We are His disciples. People are looking at us to see how we react and we need to try to react like Christ would. We must give God our attention. Ask Him what He would have you do and together we can change the world.
