Matters of the Heart

"Author Bob DeMoss writes " Yoour heart is rhe core of your being. It's the
essence of who you are. It's where your mind and will, your emotions and
convictions come together to shape what you believe and the choices you
make." He's saying that our behavior is determined by what is in our heart.
scripture backs up this idea: "As water reflects a face, so a man's heart
reflects the man." (Proverbs 27:19)
Behavior dictated by the heart sounds fine- except that our hearts have a
fatal flaw: "The heart is deceitful above all things and beyong cure. Who
can understand it?." (Jeremiah 17:9).
-From "Disciplines of a Godly woman" by Barbara Hughes
