“A good man out of the good
treasure of his heart
brings forth
good;
and an evil man out of the evil
treasure of his heart
brings forth evil,
for
out of the abundance of the heart
his
mouth speaks."
Luke 6:45
Out
of the abundance of the heart...
What is in your heart is what
you've put there.
"For where your treasure is,
there
your heart will be also."
Luke
12:34
What is your treasure? What is your heart set on? We all
have unique personalities, unique gifts and callings. If the desire
of your heart is to serve the Lord with all he's given you, then the
passion in your heart will fill your heart with everything having to
do with your gifts and talents in serving him. It's what you'll be
interested in reading, what you'll be interested in listening to.
Your heart will surround you with things that foster growth in your
gifts and calling.
But the opposite is also true. If your
interests are in things that are worldly, then that's what you'll
fill your heart with and your heart will be worldly. If your
interests are sinful, you will fill your heart with sinful things and
your heart will be sinful.
It's all about the CHOICES we make.
It's all about what we PUT into our heart.
Where is your
treasure? What is the abundance of your heart?
On a yardstick,
your life on this earth is 1/16 of an inch. The rest you will spend
in eternity. Use your time here wisely. It will determine the quality
of your eternity.
