The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
“Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you? Everyone who comes to me and hears my words and does them, I will show you what he is like: he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built. But the one who hears and does not do them is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. When the stream broke against it, immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.”
(Luke 6:45-49 ESV)
O- Proverbs 20:11 Even a child is known by his doings. Our actions, attitudes and behaviors are a testament to the condition of our heart. It is worth the extra time and effort it takes to ground our heart in God's will so that we can stand firm when the storm blows.
A- I needed to be reminded that the little things do matter. It always counts when it is a matter of character and reflecting Christ. The "little" things are just preparation for the "bigger" things.
