Heart and Hand

The goodness of the heart trumps the evil of the hands. (Pastor Kip Cone)

Does this mean that if your heart is right, it’s okay to harm others? Certainly not! Evil actions reflect what is really in the heart, and a heart that is right with God will not intentionally or regularly do evil. What Cone is probably saying is that the good acts from a godly heart can overcome the hurts done with evil intent.

Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good. (Romans 12:21)
