What is the connection?Let me tell you a short story...
The other day, my mother was in a large box store and she found on the ground a iphone/ipod (she doesn't know which is which), but brought it to the store management.
The store quickly opened it to try to find out who might own it all right in front of my mother.
Within moments the store management said, "there are some real dirty and disgusting things in this, we will try to find the owner".
My mother wondered about that and left it in their hands.
JESUS said "out of the overflow or abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks". Luke 6:45
Or we can put it this way, "what is on your iphone, blackberry or smart phone is in your heart".
You see what comes out of us, (whether its on our computer, smart phone, or out of our mouths), this is showing those around us and ourselves what is IN us.
I often said that I know what is inside someone, just let them talk.
They will in time, talk about their loves and you will in time, see them and hear them what they are really all about.
People will talk about boast about what they love.
And what they love (what they treasure) is where their heart is. Luke 12:34
Now this doesn't have to be all bad!
I also see people that talk about their family, their JESUS and things they have learned as they Journey on this exchanged life with JESUS - and that is great! Its just what comes out, is coming from the heart and that can be wonderful/Good or Evil, and it is right inside you and me.
Good is a person,
Evil is a person.
But you know the best?
JESUS who will exchange HIS life for yours.
Who takes a heart of stone, and makes it heart that feels, thats compassionate - that is capable of love.
I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. Ezekiel 36:26
Only GOD can do it - do you want in?
