TODAY’S BIBLE VERSE
Keep thy heart with all diligence;
for out of it are the issues of life.
Proverbs 4:23 – KJV

There is an intensity and urgency in this earnest pleading to guard your heart about all else, and in scripture the heart is the seat of the thoughts, the will, the conscience and the emotions. The heart is the storehouse for wisdom and all that influences the life and character of an individual, and Jesus reminds us that we should love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, with every part of our inner being. We have been endowed with reason and choices, with emotions and a will, which is bound up in our hearts – and we have been given them by God to glorify Him and to enrich our lives.

But they should never be given free rein to rule our lives and dictate our decisions for unguarded feeling can fluctuate; unguarded emotions can twist and turn on a whim; unguarded thoughts can toss to and for like the wave of the sea and an unguarded will can lead you away from the path of peace. The heart is more deceitful than anything else, and unless checked and guarded above all things, will influence our lives for evil and not for good – yes, we are to guard our hearts as the highest priority –guarded above all else.
