YOUR HEART IS YOUR HOME

The Bible says, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.”  Your heart is your home.  It’s where you live in a world of swirling emotions.  Although your thoughts control your emotions, it’s your emotions that rule your world.  If you want to take charge of your life, you must control the storm of thoughts blowing through your heart and mind.

Although you can’t change your emotions directly, you can change them indirectly by changing how you think.  Your emotions are the direct result of your thoughts, and when you change the way you think, your emotions change as well.

The Bible says, “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”  Personal transformation starts in your head and works its way down to your heart.  Your new way of thinking transforms your heart and changes the way you feel.

Your mind is where God’s love starts its miraculous work.  When his love gets into your mind, it changes the way you think.  When his love works its way down into your heart, it changes the way you feel.  Your emotional mind no longer beats you up with a negative, destructive message.  Instead, when your emotional mind goes into rewind, it replays a message of acceptance, hope, and love.  Your heart is now full of emotions consistent with God’s message of love.

Your heart is your home, and with God’s help, it will be a place of love.
