In Our Hearts

Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.

Proverbs 4: 23

The heart is devious above all else, it is perverse - who can understand it?

Jeremiah 17: 9 nrsv

Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Psalm 51: 10

A heart of love leads to a life of love and shalom. In order to have a heart of love we allow the grace of God that seeks us out over our whole lives to build up a heart of love in us - which leads to a life of love and peace. Then we continually seek further grace, allowing it to continue building up hearts and lives of love. A heart of love - towards God, towards people - fulfills every law, every command.

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love , I am only

a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love , I am nothing.
