What a person is really about

So in Mark 7 Jesus is basically telling the religious leaders that they are full of crap. They are just using God as a cover up for all that they are doing wrong. Jesus explained to the crowd that it isn't what a person eats or puts inside of the body that is bad but what comes out in his actions that is what comes from within. If you were a "corrupt" person you would do things that were corrupt. If you were a "holy" person you would have God in your spirit. What ever your actions are from everyday life can describe you as a person. People are always watching what you do even if you don't believe that they are. People can tell what is in your life even if you think it is hard to tell and try to cover it up. But for people who accuse you of things that you aren't doing, let them think whatever they want. They obviously don't know you if they accuse you of something you aren't doing. People are sensitive to those things so sometimes you have to be careful of what you say to people. God loves people, that's why Jesus said that parable in Mark 7, he wanted to set the record straight so that they can have peace and relaxation. Most people don't know if you read the bible or pray or if you don't do that but by your actions people will be able to tell what is on your heart. Don't let silly things bother you because it could make your whole day bad when you could have had a fun day or something spectacular would have happened. You never know so be open and ready for anything. If something upsetting happens then just handle it properly and not with stupidity (not saying that you would but just don't let it ruin your day). :)
