Fruit Day 6
As in water face reflects face, So a man’s heart reveals the man.
Proverbs
27:19
It has been said that it is not wise to shop for groceries on
an empty stomach because the eyes and stomach do more of the shopping than the
head. Without discipline, but with the available money, everything the eyes and
stomach desire may end up in the shopping cart. Like our eyes and stomachs, our
hearts can reveal the things we crave and desire.
So, instead of only associating nutrition with our physical
diet, we also should focus on feeding our hearts with balanced spiritual meals
that make us strong. Just as we may step onto a scale and decide to change the
way we eat, we can also pray about what excesses we should drop from our
hearts. Matters such as our lust, anger, or envy may not be seen with the naked
eye. However, such things make us spiritually unhealthy and slow down our
spiritual growth.
Let us subscribe to a daily spiritual fitness plan in our efforts
to be more pleasing to God. We can become spiritually stronger when we exercise
our faith by reading, praying, and meditating on the Lord and His Word each
day. So, let us work to have hearts that reveal our spiritual strength and
connection to Christ.
