~heart of diligence

Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the issues of life. -Proverbs 4:23


Diligence is difficult. I think about how even with daily tasks, remaining diligent, isn't always easy. So keeping your heart with all diligence? Wow.

Out of our hearts springs the issues of life.. Have you ever heard the saying "You get what's in the well," or something along those lines? Basically meaning, what comes out of your mouth, is a bucket full of what's in your heart. If our hearts contain wrong intent, bad attitudes, jealousy, and so on, our mouths will make those things apparent. In the same way, if our hearts are full of love, compassion, joy, and so on, those things will be known. So, yeah. That's just my thought of the day.

  1. So Kara, what is this a photo of? To, me I imagined that it was a pipe, or hose full of water bursting forth.. it sort of looks like a spray or something coming out from within. Great thought provoking post. Have a super week.
