About - Courtney Gilmore

How do I live through Jesus? I know what am supposed to do, but how do I do it? For instance, I know that the Lord expects me to love others, be respectful, and tell them about Him. But what exactly does that look like? I know what the bible says about marriage and parenting, but how do I live it out? I know that I am supposed to trust, believe, and hope in Him. But, how does a person demonstrate such characteristics in a world that seems so void of all of this? I need knowledge of Him and His Word, but I also seek the wisdom to carry it out. Here I will share what I am learning & what God is revealing to me about walking with Him. I welcome discussion as we all learn from each other.

1 Samuel 16:1-13

God rejected Saul as king and told Samuel to anoint one of Jesse’s sons to be his replacement. The one Samuel thought looked good was not the one God chose and He explained that we may look at the outward appearance of a person, but He looks at the heart.
First we go through the story of God’s selection, then we read a lot of verses about how God knows and cares about our hearts more than anything else and what’s on the inside is what should matter to us too. We need to be focusing on actually being good people instead of just appearing to be.
