What does God see?

A day or so ago, we brushed up against the topic of "seeing" as used in scripture.  This was from the perspective of our various "seeing" interactions with our Lord.  This idea that we as men and women have limits to our seeing and hearing is often encountered in scripture.  Today, we have a perspective on what God sees.

"...the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." (I Samuel 16:7)

This observation is made in the context of God selecting David (our beloved Psalmist?) as his anointed. You should all take heart, too, since God was so inclined to anoint a musician.
