Matthew 12:33………Working

12:33  Make (assume, consider) a tree (heart) good (Saved, Redeemed) and its fruit (words, character) will be good, (grateful, thankful) or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit. (Lit. the agricultural practice in which a well watered and cultivated tree will produce good fruit. In context the Pharisee’s should have had thankful hearts to what God was doing, instead of accusing Jesus of being in league with Satan. In a wider context a person who is truly Saved will reveal itself by their actions and words.)

Continued From Book

“Even today, we need to ask ourselves is our speech reflective of a life that’s been Saved and Redeemed by God. Or does it reflect someone who’s always angry, hurtful and bitter. Or someone who’s always grumbling, complaining, and unsatisfied?” ⇒ Will you still be grateful and thankful to God for the family that you have, even as broken and messed up as it is. Will you be thankful to God for where your at and the place you live, even even though it’s not a mansion or marbled laid. Will you be thankful to God for what you have, even though you have only two pennies to rob together. Will you be thankful to God for all the things in your life, even if they don’t add up too much.
