Things you are glad aren’t seen but they are!
Dear Friends,
Aren’t you glad that no one can read your mind? But someone can. Beware. Today’s devotional will explain. God bless you.
Because of Calvary,
John Janney
Ecclesiastes 7:20
Ecclesiastes 7:20 English Standard Version (ESV)
20 Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and never sins.
Ecclesiastes 7:20
“One said that he wished that he had a window in his bosom, that everybody might read his thoughts. I think that, if he were at all a sensible man, he would want to pull the blind down before long. There is something which, now and again, crosses the purest mind which he would not wish another to perceive; and he who watches his thoughts with an exemplary vigilance will sometimes be off his guard, and tolerate an imagination which he would not wish to pollute any other person’s mind. But though we cannot read each others hearts, God can read them.”
[Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit XLIV, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1898), p. 15]
