We’ve been taking a look at the heart here lately and we’re talking about the inner most part of who we are, not the physical organ.
One of the verses that speaks so much about the heart is Proverbs 4:23 where it says, “Above all else, guard your heart for it is the wellspring of life.”
What I’ve realized in my life is there is this tendency for my to start controlling or editing my behavior instead of actually guarding my heart. There is a difference. Many people think its more about behavior but what Jesus taught was about change. He wants to change us from the inside out and give us a new heart. He wants to show us how to to expose the things that are in our heart to the light of his truth.
Dealing with heart issues is not just about editing our behavior, it’s about exposing the things that are going on and bringing them out into the light of God’s truth.
