Acorn Build Up: Heart Storage

Heart Storage

Luke 6:45
The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.

What are we storing in our hearts? Are we gathering in the good stuff, or are we collecting evil? Another way to identify the contents of our heart would be to determine that which occupies the majority of our thinking. The thoughts that capture our attention, you know, the ones we dwell upon, are clues to the nature of our storage.

Luke 12:34
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

If we treasure things like love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control (Galatians 5:21-22), then our hearts will overflow with the good stuff when we speak.

Let's take inventory of what we've stored in our hearts.
