All the ways of a man are clean and right in his own eyes. Yet that does not excuse his faults in God's eyes. God understands your thoughts, motives, and the desires of your heart much better than you do. So much the more reason is there for anxious self-examination and testing the conduct by God's word, and, when this has been done to the best of our ability, still to pray for cleansing from faults which have escaped our notice. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? "I the LORD search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds." (Jeremiah 17:9-10 ESV)

Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your heart in rebellion. Whoever conceals his sins will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy and forgiveness. If you repent and believe in the gospel, putting your faith in Jesus Christ, you will inherit salvation, which leads to everlasting life. With this salvation comes a necessary spiritual rebirth; God will give you a new heart and His Holy Spirit, which will give you wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, put His Laws on your heart and mind, guide you into all the truth, help you, and comfort you. By the blood of Jesus, sanctifying you and cleansing you of all unrighteousness—conforming you to His image.
