These city workers' devastation is comparable to that caused by the Pharisees in Jesus' day. They elevated the art of concealment. They were successful-dressed. They were adept at leaving a favourable impression. They grew to despise Christ and His followers the more they understood about His character.
When we simply think about our own needs and get preoccupied with how other people see us, we are much like the Pharisees. We have the potential to fill up on ourselves, make empty promises, and harbour selfish intentions that are as savage as shattered glass.
God wants to mould us into being more like Christ, which is very different. According to Jesus (Mt. 23:12), "He who humbles himself will be exalted." Our own attempts to present a positive image of oneself are nothing more than a subpar "paint job."
A wicked heart is like a crooked fence: No amount of paint will make it straight. Less of me and more of Jesus, becoming more and more like Thee every day, just to live completely in submission to my Lord who ransomed me.
