Luke 6:44-45
“Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thorn bushes, or grapes from briers. A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.”
One of our faithful readers shared with me about purchasing a CD at a yard sale for 50 cents. When she got home and opened the case, she discovered that there was nothing inside. She had just purchased an empty CD case!
I have experienced something of the same sort of thing. I like to take CD’s to play for a church service. Once or twice I have opened the case and felt dismay upon seeing that it was empty. What a sinking feeling!
There are far too many people who claim to be born again believers who are empty on the inside. They seem to think that church attendance, church membership or some other criteria determines what is on the inside. I am afraid it is like having an empty CD case.
My heart aches for authentic Christianity. That comes about only by reading God’s precious Word on a daily basis and obeying what it says. We do not need to have others tell us what is right and wrong—the Word will be our guide. It will insure that we will never have an empty case!
Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today, trust Him completely and be a blessing!
