Have A Good Heart

Unlike a tree,you have the ability to choose the fruit your life produces.
Jesus said that you can tell what is in a person's heart by listening to what that person says. He used the work "heart " to mean a person's true character and feeling. If someone frequently gossips, lies, and speaks negatively about others, you have a pretty good impression of his character. Likewise , you can easily guess the character of a person whose words are encouraging, kind, and truthful.
People can't see your heart,but they can see (and hear) what your heart produces. It's like the fruit on a tree. You know what kind of tree you're looking at by the fruit it produces. Jesus said, "Make a tree good, and its fruit will be good. Make a tree bad, and its fruit will be be bad"(Matt. 12:33). Make it our goal to produce good fruit by the power of the Holy Spirit.
"A good person produces good words from a good hear,
and an evil person produces evil words from an evil heart."
MATTHEW 12:35
