Notes from I Samuel pt 8

 "Misunderstood?"
 

1 Sam. 1:12-14
"As She kept on praying to the Lord, Eli OBSERVED her MOUTH. Hannah was PRAYING in her HEART, and her lips were moving but her voice was not heard."
 
(When we are only looking at things in the natural or at first glance, we too might miss what's truly going on... Only God can see and know the heart, that's why HE is the only ONE qualified to JUDGE it.)
 
 Hannah was so distraught that she couldn't audibly get the words out. She prayed in her heart and her lips were moving, but her pain prevented the words from being heard ( by man that is). Eli SAW her and ACCUSED her of being drunk. He MIS-judged because he could not comprehend the full picture of what was going on. He could not see on the inside. But ya'll, GOD COULD and HE DID! .

The scripture also says in 1 Sam 16:7b "Man looks at the outward appearance but the LORD looks at the heart."


He SEES you and KNOWS the translation of every TEAR.


stay tuned...

Grace and peace
