Matthew 15:12-20
English Standard Version (ESV)
If you eat poorly, your physical health will likely reflect this -- you may be able to escape the effects for a while, but it will catch up with you.
In the same way, Jesus warns us about how we treat our hearts. If we fill our hearts and our lives with garbage, taking in only material and selfish things, eventually it will corrode our hearts and our lives will not be the abundant lives Jesus wants for us. On the other hand, if we pay attention to things from above, we feed and grow our hearts that will shape our lives into faithful testimonies to what God is doing. What we take in will likely shape what comes out of us.
So what are you paying attention to? How do you spend your time? What is feeding your soul?
