Do not judge the book by it's cover

Hi ....
Greetings from India.
There's a saying "Don't judge the book by it's cover."
Is so easy to look at the outward appearance of people and judge, but that's not how we should see people. We need to see their hearts.
I think only Jesus Christ our Lord & Savior really knows us, as we really are. The Holy Spirit who lives within us knows every thing about us.
People may fail to see our hearts, misunderstand us, misjudge us, but ONLY GOD really knows you as you are so don't feel upset when people fail to see your heart.
If people label before reading the book it's ok, it's not what people say we are that matters, it's WHAT GOD THINKS ABOUT US THAT REALLY DOES MATTER!!!
1 Samuel 16:7
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 man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."We are not on earth to win any popularity show, but to live a life that pleases our Heavenly Father.
Our life is surely an open Book before God.
Nothing is hidden from HIM.
Here's a poem that blessed me this day.
Have a blessed day

LIFE'S AN OPEN BOOK "
(A poem...)

My life to You God is as an open book.
My ways are ever before You so take a look.
To You there is no cover, all is open and bare.
You know my wants, desires, motives and cares.

How could I think I could keep anything from You?
The pages being transparent, You see right through.
As others read, they think they know the storyline.
Only You oh God can proofread these pages of mine.

At times I get weary and want to put this book on a shelf.
Caringly you read every line, loving me more than I love myself.
Lord help me to write this book for I am not skilled.
Let it be written and established in accordance to Your will.

Lord be my editor and make all the corrections.
Rewriting the story of my life as You give direction.
Tell me how it should read, knowing You are a true friend.
Even before I write it, You know the beginning to the end.

Lord help me to rip off the cover, let there be no disguise.
And let the book of my life be a bestseller in your eyes...
