All About GOD

All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

"To thine own heart be true," the old saying goes. It remains a timely and relevant life lesson that all of us would do well to remember. When we veer off the course that our heart is advising us to follow, we can make our lives very difficult.

Now I'm not talking about selfish desires. I'm talking about pursuing the desires that God puts in your heart. What do you want out of life? What do you believe is God's will for you? Are you pursuing it?

Some people have too many cares and worries that keep them from stepping out and following what's in their heart. They've decided it's out of their reach.

The Bible says we should cast all our cares upon God for He cares for us. Whatever worry you have that is keeping you from following your heart, you need to give it to God and let Him take care of it.

He wants you to follow the desire He's placed in you. Let God take care of your cares and follow your heart. You can trust Him. He cares for you

Tara,

Welcome to AAG. God has brought you to a community that cares and loves in Christ. Thank you for sharing your heart with us.

Indeed we must follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. The desires of our heart must be filtered through the Word of God to test and see if indeed they come from him, but if they do, if they originate from the almighty, then we do well to follow his leading.

2 Timothy 1:6

Hi Tara,

Welcome to AAG.

I like to think - The mind is the battleground for the heart.

Satan and his world first catch one's (mind's) attention......then try to overcome the person's heart.

It's interesting when Jesus was explaining the greatest commandment, He said, " You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.........( Matthew 22:37, emphasis added).

It's interesting to notice, that He covered all the major spiritual components of a person's life.

 

Grace and Peace.
