A
good tree can’t produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit.
-Luke
6:43
Have
you ever cut open a beautiful apple, to find that the inside is full of worms
and mush?
Do
you blame the tree?
Of
course not, it is not the tree’s fault that a worm got into the apple!
The
outside of the apple may have been pristine and shiny, but the horror that
lurked within – ew!
Eventually
the worm would have done his damage and the outside of the apple would have
also become ugly.
It
is essentially the same with people.
What
is inside our heart will eventually show on the surface.
If
you love Jesus and live for Him, this manifests itself into kindness and
caring.
But,
if you are showing jealousy and bitterness, hatred and selfishness, well, maybe
you should check your heart.
People
know what is inside your heart by the way you live.
