Proverbs 4:23-27
Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life. 24 Put away from you a deceitful mouth, And put perverse lips far from you. 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead, And your eyelids look right before you. 26 Ponder the path of your feet, And let all your ways be established. 27 Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil.

As Jesus said, everything comes from inside, from the heart. This is why it must be guarded at all times. Part of this is focusing on becoming like Christ as we trust and obey, and part is in avoiding saying or doing evil. So we need to consider how we live, the direction we live in, and keep to the narrow path in following Jesus Christ.
