Ever since we have been young we have been told to guard our hearts. But why we may ask. The Bible tells us plainly
Proverbs 4:23 KJV
Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
Everything we leave into our heart is bound to come out eventually. Wether it be good or bad. If we leave lies and deception in after awhile we will soon become a deceitful person. But if we allow God to work in our hearts and honestly seek after him. We will see the total opposite we will have a kind and compassionate heart.
It also says " for out of it are the issues of life." that means we need to give our heart condition (because we all have one wether good or bad) ,the utmost care because we tend to go by what our heart feels. If we leave our heart unattended then things can creep in that otherwise if guarded would never stand a chance.
And God has given us the sole responsibility of guarding our hearts which means we need to be watchful each and every day for problems that could occur that could cause heart damage wether it be hurt, disappointment, or a friend desserting us. We need to take these things to Christ and allow him to help us through the issues of life. And he will assist us in keeping our heart pure and guarded!!
Well these are the thoughts that have been in my mind lately may they bless and encourage you!! May the Lord Bless you in the next week! Until next time!
