This brings to mind a "helpful hint" I read several years ago - I think it was Heloise (not that it matters).

She was giving housekeeping guidelines - she said that if we get that phone call from our folks saying they're a couple of miles away to stand in the doorway of the room - clean everything that you can easily see, then wave around a rag soaked in Pine-Sol to scent the air. Everyone will think you keep an immaculate house

My favorite quote is:

"The essence of legalism is trusting in religious activity, rather than trusting in God

It is putting our confidence in a practice rather than in a person.

And without fail, this will lead us to loving the practice more than the Person."​

I thought it was by Thomas á Kempis, but I can't seem to find verification of that.

"God can afford to wait. God can afford to wait. Whether to convert the unbelieving, to rreward the just, or to punish the wicked - God can afford to wait. With Him everything comes home in the end.
