• “I was poor in the midst of riches, and ready to perish with hunger near a table plentifully spread and a continual feast. Oh, Beauty, ancient and new! Why have I known thee so late? Alas, I sought thee where thou wast not, and did not seek thee where thou wast…” – Madame Guyon

A Crafty Heart by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 02/27/12

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: Proverbs 7 tells us the story of a young man who’s walking alone late at night. It says, “Behold a woman comes to meet him, dressed as a harlot and cunning of heart.”

This verse shows us that the way we dress reflects what’s inside. This woman’s true heart was displayed by her appearance. I think we can see the same thing today. So many women dress in a provocative way to get the attention of men, including entertainers hoping to further their career. The problem is, a lot of women follow these immodest leaders, and today’s fashions reflect a lot of that immodesty.

What’s in your heart? Are you trying to catch attention, no matter what it takes? Or do you have a heart for serving the men around you? Would you ask God to give you a modest attitude?

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.
