A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.
Proverbs 17:22, ESV

Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.
Proverbs 4:23, ESV

Every man’s way is right in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the hearts.
Proverbs 21:2, NASB

God knows our hearts, our intentions and desires, our hopes and our sins. He knows what we do and why.
