"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law; justice and mercy and faithfulness. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. You blind guides, straining out a gnat and swallowing a camel! Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup and the plate, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. You blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and the plate, that the outside also may be clean. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within are full of dead people's bones and all uncleanness. So you also outwardly appear righteous to others, but within you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the monuments of the righteous, saying, 'If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.' Thus you witness against yourselves that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets."
- Matthew 23:23-31

Do you really speak and do what's in your hearts? We have the tendency to be righteous sometimes or to show off that we are all doing good and doing what God wants us to do. People might accuse me of being one since I am far from what they used to see from me.  But those who are really close to me know that I am far from being righteous and claiming that I am pure. I am the most transparent person you'll ever meet and if I praise and worship God right now, it's because my heart sincerely tells me to. Nobody forced me in attending my weekly LOJ Feast or reading the bible. It's all because my heart jumps for joy everytime I do all of these. I have found happiness in doing these things.

My Lord, thank you for changing my heart and because of this, I am doing all these praises and worship to you sincerely with all my heart. If I sing praise to You, if I worship Your mighty name, it's all because my heart tells me to. Please guide me always Jesus in doing what is right and from what I read from Your words. There are still things that am confused with, the things that I fail to do, but in time, I know I will have all those answers from You. Thank you Father for your grace and for staying with me always. I love You.
