Store Treasure In Your Hearts
Jesus says ... Mt. 12 ... Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

In the OT we are told to keep our hearts with all diligence ... for out of the heart comes the issues of life. Prov. 4:23
If we allow bitterness and resentment into our heart, we defile ourselves.
Therefore we must be very careful to take care of all bitterness and resentment by turning to God in prayer and by settling it with God, focused on that which God calls to our mind by the Holy Spirit.
