What if I told you that I have a heart condition? What would your reaction be? Would you respond with gasps of "oh no?" Or, would you feel sorry for me? The truth is, I do have a heart condition…and so do you. The Bible mentions the heart almost 1,000 times. It reveals that the heart is the core of a person's being, and it is where emotions, desires, and dreams are found. The Bible says that the heart is the source of everything a person does and that the condition of a person's heart determines the course of their life. The Bible sets high importance on keeping our hearts pure: “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” (Proverbs 4:23 NLT)
Your heart's condition depends on the things you allow into your heart. These things form your thoughts and attitudes and shape the deepest part of your being. No matter what your circumstances (the outside) are, if your heart (the inside) is in good condition, you are going to be okay. But if the wrong things in your heart go unattended, they will become deeply rooted and harder to deal with. The quicker you can detect a wrong heart condition and get it straightened out, the better off you are. I want to invite you to come this Sunday morning as we start a new series called “What’s in Your Heart.” Make Every Day Count!
