Luke 6:45

The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart,
& the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart.
For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.


Heavenly Father

The words that come from our mouths reveal the state of our heart,
But too often we speak without thinking & don't hear what we say,
until from our lips the words depart.

It is in this moment its revealed to us how we are feeling inside,
Are we coming from a loving place or the bitterness of pride.

This is when we need to be honest with ourselves & see the fault is coming from within,
As its in being honest about the state of our heart, that frees us from burden & sin.

The bitterness that rolls off the tongue shows that darkness is taking hold,
& an internal search needs to take place, to bring warmth where its cold.

I pray that in these moments my lips stay shut & I do not speak a word,
Until I have searched the recesses of my heart,
& your Word can be heard.

Never do I want my words to be harsh or to harm anyone,
& its through prayer & seeking forgiveness for my intent
that love shines through from your Holy Son.

The more that I seek out the dark places that lurk from within,
The more my heart opens up to the light your love shines without sin.

I pray that I dedicate my life to purging & cleansing the evil in my heart,
& in all your Glory I live in joy, for the freedom you impart.

God Bless
