A person’s thoughts influence his nature and behavior.
A key verse that reflects this concept is found in the book of Proverbs:
« for he is the kind of person who is always thinking about the cost. “Eat and drink,” he says to you, but his heart is not with you. »(Proverbs 23:7)
Indeed, a person’s inner thoughts reveal his true character, even if he may say or do something else outwardly.
The idea here is that what we think in our hearts profoundly influences who we are and how we act.
Another relevant passage is found in the Gospel of Matthew:
« But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. »(Matthew 15:18-19)
This passage shows that the thoughts and intentions of the heart are the root of human actions, whether good or bad.
MAY YOUR THOUGHTS BE GOOD !
PRAYER:
Lord our God, grant us that we may have good thoughts.
It is in the precious name of your Son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
Apostle Jean-Claude SINDAYIGAYA
