The Heart

was about to write life and death..
but some how, not today..

Ask yourself today..
when was your last real smile from the bottom of your heart?
when was your last relief?

Everything was about the heart matter..
Bible said a lot of thing about the heart of the man.
God knows all of our hearts, “For you alone know the hearts of all the sons of men.” (I Kings 8:39)
The question is do you and I know our own heart?

People had been questioned about themselves throughout the year.
And I believe me and you did the same too..
When the Bible speaks of the human heart it is speaking of the thinking of a man, a man’s will, a man’s emotions or feelings, a man’s conscience, or any given combinations of these.

(1) The heart is the thinking aspect of man. “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.” (Prov. 23:7)
Jesus asks, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?” (Matt. 9:4 )
“For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts.” (Matt. 15:19 )
“If that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying his coming.’” (Matt. 24:48) The evil servant says this in his heart because that is what he is thinking.
“But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.” (Luke 2:19)
Mary thought about these things and mulled them over in her mind.
One could go on and find verse after verse in the Bible teaching the same thing about the heart being the place of thought, reasoning, and understanding within man.

Sometime people will think: 'Am I responsible to what am I thinking about?'
The Bible answers in the affirmative.
“For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.” (Rom. 8:6 )
“Whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy–meditate on these things.” (Phil. 4:8)
