Outward life is the result of our inward thinking.
Take care of the inward, and the outward will take care of itself.
"For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:..." Proverbs 23:7
But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man. Matthew 15:18-20
And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. -Genesis 6:5
The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity. -Psalm 94:11
I hate vain thoughts: but Thy law do I love. -Psalm 119:113
Create in me a clean heart, O God;
and renew a right spirit within me.
-Psalm 51:10
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my
heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength,
and my Redeemer.
-Psalm 19:14
