Check the Heart

One of my biggest fears and greatest prayers is that I do something, I believe is right, when it's wrong. I look at it this way: too many people in history destroy and harm with a mindset they are doing the right thing and come to find out they were wrong.

I pray constantly for my heart and for people around me that love Jesus and love me (in that order) to speak into my life. I'll be the first to admit when I was wrong, my problem is I don't always know I was wrong until later. So I pray and ask God to speak clear and with wisdom (key ... with wisdom) through people to my heart. Asking God to guide my steps and my actions.

There are things in my life that I pray and talk with God about constantly, because I haven't gone through them before. Decisions are always taken back to scripture. My mom gives me a hard time, because a lot of things to me, because of scripture, are black and white. Not a lot of gray. To check your heart you must go back to scripture. Examine your actions and your thoughts to how God describes how they should be.

God spoke to my heart this weekend and I need to make amends with some people. I don't know how it will turn out, but I do know I need to open up conversation and love people. Whether I think they should be loved or not. Thank you God for your words of truth and healing.

Now, go check your heart!
