Thought for Wednesday February 7


The mouth of the just murmurs wisdom.
Commit to the LORD your way;
trust in him, and he will act.
He will make justice dawn for you like the light;
bright as the noonday shall be your vindication.
The mouth of the just murmurs wisdom.
 

Mark 7: 14 – 23  Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person; but the things that come out from within are what defile…. From within the man, from his heart, come evil thoughts, unchastity, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, licentiousness, envy, blasphemy, arrogance, folly. All these evils come from within and they defile.
 
Do I worry more about the bad things in the world around me or the bad things within me?  Can a good person still have evil thoughts?

Action:  Work on overcoming some of the evil within.
