“What Does God Look At?”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

” … but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and
of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.” Isaiah 66:2b<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are three classes of individuals mentioned in our
text. However, in looking at the verse, the characteristics
attributed to the one looked at are very similar and perhaps any
one of them would assist in breeding the other two. A poor and
contrite-spirited person would be positively affected by God’s
Word. I don’t know if poor means poor in a financial sense or
in a spiritual sense. In Matthew 5:3, Jesus said, “Blessed are
the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” I
believe it speaks of a humility that is coupled with being
contrite, which is a deeply humbled person, filled with
remorse over something in their past.
So, God looks to or at the perfectly poor and the carefully
contrite to bless them in one form or another. It is the fear of
God and temerity before His Word that tremendously affects
God’s eyes pointed in one’s direction. His eyes are filled, not
only with tears at times, but also with love and pity. I, for one,
am not interested in seeing God’s eyes filled with wrath.
The following two verses are not filled with pleasantries
and the Lord said, ” … Yea, they have chosen their own
ways ,… ” vs. 3. And verse 4 is a strong indictment of the evil
path many choose to take, ending with this epitaph, ” … they
did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighteth
not. “He’s watching you … what does He see? -T.G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
