And so this is Easter,
And what have you done?
Another year over,
Has your new life just begun?
Some folks complain about holidays not having a real meaning other than material celebrations: Eggs, bunnies, bonnets, buns etc.
What matters the most is:
The condition of your heart.
The work of your hands.
The direction of your feet.
The truth of your words.
The water quality in the River of Life is measured by the flow outside the gates of your heart. As a man drinketh - so he floweth!
Proverbs 23
7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
“Eat and drink!” he says to you,
But his heart is not with you.
8 The morsel you have eaten, you will vomit up,
And waste your pleasant words.
12 Apply your heart to instruction,
And your ears to words of knowledge.
13 Do not withhold correction from a child,
15 My son, if your heart is wise,
My heart will rejoice—indeed, I myself;
16 Yes, my inmost being will rejoice
When your lips speak right things.
19 Hear, my son, and be wise;
And guide your heart in the way.
22 Listen to your father who begot you,
And do not despise your mother when she is old.
23 Buy the truth, and do not sell it,
Also wisdom and instruction and understanding.
24 The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice,
And he who begets a wise child will delight in him.
25 Let your father and your mother be glad,
And let her who bore you rejoice.
26 My son, give me your heart,
And let your eyes observe my ways.
