Guard Your Heart!

Guard your heart above all else,
    for it determines the course of your life.

~Proverbs 4:23 

What is the focus of your life? Is it your wallet?  Perhaps it's your job?  Maybe even your family?  Or is it the weekend?

Have you ever done a half-hearted job or just enough to get by and then wonder why someone else got the accolades or promotion?  Because your heart wasn't in the project!

Proverbs 23:7 reminds us that "As a man thinks, so is he."  

Want to be a better spouse?  Make your spouse the most important earthly relationship in your life and make that relationship your offering to God!  

Want to be noticed (positively) at work? Remember that you work for God and make your efforts your offering to Him!

You see, we will reflect our hearts! I've said it before and I'll share it again: "What's in your well comes up in your bucket!"  Want your life to be better? Then focus on the positive instead of drowning yourself in the negative sludge!  Yes, it will take a LOT of effort to change perspective.  No, it will not be instantaneous.  BUT, your efforts will be rewarded! 

You reflect your heart!  And you determine what you let into your heart to be reflected.  Guard your heart!!!
