Thought for the Day 3/30/2012
The heart is
our garden, and along with each action
there is an
intention that is planted like a seed.
We can use a
sharp knife to cut someone,
and if our
intention is to do harm, we will be a murderer.
We can perform
an almost identical action,
but if we are
a surgeon, the intention is to heal and save a life.
The action is
the same, yet depending on its purpose or intention,
it can be
either a terrible act or a compassionate act.
Jack Kornfield
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
A good man out of the good treasure of the heart
brings forth good things:
and an evil man out of the evil treasure
brings forth evil
things.
Matthew 6:21
& 12:35
