Verse from Mark

“从外面进去的,不能使人污秽,从里面出来的,才能使人污秽。””
马可福音 7:15

“there is nothing outside the man which can defile him if it goes into him; but the things which proceed out of the man are what defile the man.”
Mark 7:15

We get so hung up on externals, appearances, and facades. Jesus cuts to the core of God's concern — our spiritual heart condition. He wants us to not only focus on what we put on our body, but what we allow to grow in our hearts and simmer in our heads. The inner world is what needs our most earnest attention. 

So let's be honest and ask if we are spending as much time focusing on our inner world as we are focusing on our external appearance!
