Our Heart, Our Garden

Our heart is like a garden.  What do we sow in it?

Seeds of love, or seeds of discord?
Seeds of joy, or seeds of bitterness?
Seeds of peace, or seeds of strive?
Seeds of patience, or seeds of selfishness?
Seeds of kindness, or seeds of self-importance?
Seeds of goodness, or seeds of wickedness?
Seeds of faithfulness, or seeds of deceit?
Seeds of gentleness, or seeds of rudeness?
Seeds of self-control, or seeds of ''I want it NOW!''?

Proverbs 4 : 23 (NKJV)
Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the the issues of life.

Be careful!  What we sow, we will reap.  Let our harvest be one of rejoicing and thanksgiving to our Lord God.  Let our lives end with our Lord's approval - "Well done, good and faithful servant".
