Day 15 - Food take in, Word say out

17 Don't you understand that whatever goes into the mouth enters the stomach and then passes out into the sewer? 18 But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a person.

Matt 15:17-18 (NET)

We people needs to eat and food is what we eat. Logically,  we ate the food, chew it down in our mouth, goes down to our stomach, starts to digest that food, stays awhile in the intestine for further digestion and then releases in our body goes down to the sewage. Basic science and all of us, including Jesus knows about it.

But Jesus describe 'things come out of the mouth' as words every mouth would say. Scientifically, every word we say is base in our knowledge to response during a conversation and our brain arrange those words so quickly as we say the each word output.


Jesus knows everything, thus he knew what every heart would say. We may say something that our mind created but what we say from our heart when we are pissed, when we are angry, when we are happy, when we are sad, every emotional response we may say coming from our heart is what our character is about. And the Lord knows what our heart is saying thus he knew what are our characters and attitudes. So we must always be careful to every words we say for the Lord will be delighted when we say good things.
