January 17th

Jan 17th #devo God is concerned with the condition of one's heart. This comes from the Old Testament, in 1Samuel 16:7 ... For the Lord sees not as man sees; for man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart. Much later in the New Testament, it is made clear in Luke 11:39 & 42 God is not concerned at all with appearances, but with the heart, and a heart willing to do justly, and to love kindness and mercy and be humble, see Micah 6:8.
