“For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

“Thus says the Lord: ‘Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, let not the mighty man glory in his might, nor let the rich man glory in his riches; but let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the Lord, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight,’ says the Lord.”

“For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
