Good Things Out of Good Treasure
A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.—Matthew 12:35 (KJV)
Jesus taught that your words mirror your true spiritual condition. When you have nurtured your faith, your words are good treasure. Conversely, your words can be evil if your focus is on anger, bitterness and resentment. Your outlook and disposition reflect whatever you have stored in your heart.
Lord, help me hold on to good treasure so that I speak out of the abundance of my heart.
