1 Peter 3:3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
God is more interested in what's in your heart than what you cover yourself with. The pharisees covered themselves so piously but Jesus said inside they were rotten. Some people do the same today. They dress the part but their hearts are not right. God is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. He knows the secrets of the heart. He knows why you do what you do even when you don't. Cry to Him each day, just as David did, 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: 24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
