“Do not eat the bread of a miser, nor desire his delicacies; for as he thinks in his heart, so he is.” (vv.6-7)
In essence, what we think is what we are, so we need to regularly ask ourselves: “What am I thinking?” Because, what is on our minds is easily reflected in our actions. As has been expressed by many people in many different ways: Watch your thoughts because they become words. Watch your words because they become actions.
In the New Testament, Paul tells us to “put on the mind of Christ.” Why? Because if our thoughts are on Him, our actions will then reflect His love and grace. Therefore, pray that God would give you the heart and mind of Christ each and every day.
The Truth: “He that says he abides in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as He walked.” (1 John 2:6)
