Don’t trust your heart!

Thomas Kempis wrote “What, indeed, gives more trouble and affliction than uncontrolled desires of the heart?”

So many times we have heard folks say...”go with your heart”! NO!!! Until your have a new heart in Christ Jesus we should not go with our hearts! Why you might ask? 

Jeremiah 17:9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?

God tells us about our hearts! They are wicked! But I have good news....Ezekiel 36:26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

If we will trust Jesus we can have a new heart, one we can trust by the guidance of the Holy Spirit! Praise the Lord!

So be very careful with trusting your heart unless it is controlled by God! It will lead you astray otherwise!
