What is in your heart to do? It may be time for a Spiritual heart check-up.
Why? Because your heart conditions determine whether God’s word will
bear fruit in your life or not.
I thinking about this issue while driving home from visiting a sick friend recently.
A key thought
occurred to me:
People do what is in their heart to do.
Your daily choices reveal
your heart’s desires.
Now before I went to visit my friend, I had all sorts of contrary thoughts:
- "I’m tired…"
- "I don’t feel like going…"
- "What will I say to comfort her…"
That was my flesh!
But in my heart, I did want to go because I love my friend. I wanted to be there for her in
her time of need.
So I went anyway, even though my flesh complained at first.
If you are having difficulty following through with any desire, a good question to ask yourself is:
"Is my heart in this?"
These conditions can prevent God's word from flourishing in your life and from getting the result you seek.
