Our first concern, then,
should be for the heart—that its affections and disposition may be
fully under the control of Divine grace; that every principle of
truth and righteousness may be enthroned there; that justice, mercy,
benevolence, brotherly kindness, love, faith, meekness, temperance,
supreme reverence for God and Christ, and a fervent love for all the
beauties of holiness, may be firmly fixed as the governing
principles of life. If these principles be fixed, established, in
the heart, then out of the good treasure of the heart the mouth will
speak forth words of truth, soberness, wisdom and
grace. |
