Your heart is the well that your life draws from. Everything you think, say, and do flows from your heart. So, what does that mean? Protect your heart.
“Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.” Proverbs 4:23
Every time I read this verse, I’m challenged to take a look at who and what has access to my heart. Whose words get in and form my opinions and beliefs? What gets stored up and treasured in the well of my heart?
If we’re not careful, our hearts get tainted and full of things that are not God’s best. Things that aren’t truthful or helpful in our pursuit of Godliness.
God is so kind and gentle as He points out the things that need to go.
And God is so protective as He warns us to guard our hearts…and the inputs into our lives. Because He knows the cause and effect.
What is in your well? Your heart is worth protecting because it feeds the rest of your life. Guard it well. – Sandi
