Today’s Thought “Smiling Faces…” G. Ward

Proverbs 21

² Every person’s way is right in his own eyes, but the Lord examines the hearts. ³ To do righteousness and justice
Is preferred by the Lord more than sacrifice.

 

As a boy, I was deemed good by many adults and because this tag perceived, maintained consistency (only in the presence of adults), it wasn’t a difficult practice (*1 Cor.13:11). My siblings and others (i.e., peers) knew of many shortcomings in me, yet theirs many times, were equally calculating, disabling greater castigation.

Altogether, who we’ve been is a disqualified contrast for today (cf. Ps.118:24). Our redemption has been provided and now our character is determined by our Creator as seen and unseen behavior and whereas HE alone knows our heart/conscience, the day presented, demands we put more of HIS Word inside so as to be transformed onto best spiritual practices; only considerate of making HIS Name great.
