Uncovering The True Motive
Proverbs 21:2
A person may think their own ways are right,
but the Lord weighs the heart.
PCdc Commentary
Rationalize:
to ascribe (one’s acts, opinions, etc.) to causes
that superficially seem reasonable and valid
but that actually are unrelated
to the true, possibly unconscious and
often less creditable or agreeable causes.

As humans, we tend to rationalize, consciously or not.
But, God considers our motive.
So, before you act, it is wise to first
“take it to the Lord in prayer.”
