Inevitably, the thoughts and feelings we harbor in our hearts become the attitudes and actions of our lives. Early on, they are just seeds scattered across the soil of our heart. With a minimum of effort, we can sweep them away, but if we delay, or worse yet, if we nurture them, they will take root. Even then, we can uproot them; but if we do not act quickly, they will overwhelm us.
“And do not give the devil an opportunity [to lead you into sin by holding a grudge, or nurturing anger, or harboring resentment, or cultivating bitterness].”
— Ephesians 4:27 (AMP)
Lord Jesus, help us to deal ruthlessly with our thoughts and attitudes. Deliver us
from every evil desire. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
