Gem #7 - Reservoir of the Heart

You have seen the great reservoirs provided by our water companies, in

which is kept the water which is to supply hundreds of streets and

thousands of homes. Now, the heart is the reservoir of man, and our life

is allowed to flow in its proper season. That life may flow through

different pipes--the mouth, the hand, the eye; but still all the actions of

the hand, the eyes, and the lips, derive their source from the great

fountain and central reservoir, the heart; and therefore, there is no

problem showing the great need that exists for keeping this reservoir, the

heart, in a proper state and condition, since otherwise that which flows

through the pipes must be foul and corrupt.
