Proverbs4:23

23. Keep thy heart with all diligence: for out of it are the issues of life .

Thy mind and thoughts, and especially the will and affections, which are the more immediate and effectual cause of all mens actions.

From thence proceed all the actions, as of the natural, so of the Spiritual life, which lead to Eternal life and happiness, as on the contrary all evil actions tending to Death spring from thence, which is here implied.
