One of the most regularly given advice is, "Follow your heart", "Do what your heart's telling you" or even "What ever you feel is right, do it". Well guess what?! How can we be ultimately sure that whatever our heart's say is completely right?
We often battle with right and wrong a lot in our life span here on earth, but we never seem to consult with the most powerful source-GOD-whose will is ultimately what our goal should be.
We spend time focusing too much on what WE WANT and not what HE NEEDS!
I won't lie, i've chosen the wrong path couple times, 'following my heart'. The thing is, our heart is not always right, doesn't always have the right answer or even the correct path; (Jeremiah 17:9) because after all, the heart of man is indeed deceitful. And therefore we mistaken what we call 'intuition' or 'gut feeling' to be the path which leads to success.
But my friend, the true answer lies right before us. Chirst Jesus!
He is absolutely, the way the truth and the life (John 14:6). He knows the answer, HE IS THE ANSWER!
Therefore we must seek him with our everything, above all else (Jeremiah 29:13).
In this case now, we have only one thing left to do, and it's to ask God to transform our hearts the way He transforms our mind by His renewal (Romans 12:2); and search us thoroughly and remove any wicked deceit that may be within us (Psalms 139:23-24). As such, repeat this simple prayer daily before our Master and Chief, "Wash us through and through, cleanse us make us more like you" (Psalms 51:10).
Let's start small and take one step at a time in aiming to FOLLOW THE HEART OF GOD, by humbly and consistently praying this little prayer to Christ Jesus everyday and watch God move and work not only for you but through you.
1 Corinthians 1:9 New International Version (NIV)
9 God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
