Monday, June 9 Serve [Jehovah] with a complete heart . . . ; for all hearts Jehovah is searching.—1 Chron. 28:9. Jehovah is the Examiner of all hearts, including ours. (Prov. 17:3; 21:2) And what he finds in our heart has a strong bearing on our relationship with him and on our future. Thus, we have good reason to follow David’s inspired counsel by doing our utmost to serve Jehovah with a complete heart. Our zealous activities as Jehovah’s people show that we have, indeed, a deep desire to serve God with a complete heart. To check that our resolve to serve God is not weakening—that we are not letting our guard down—we need to peer regularly into our heart. How can we do that? Obviously, our inner personality is unseen—much as the core, or heart, of a tree cannot be seen. Still, as Jesus mentioned in the Sermon on the Mount, just as fruits reveal the condition of a tree, so our activities demonstrate the true condition of our heart.—Matt. 7:17-20.
