Don’t act upon feelings but upon Truth!



We must be very careful about how we react to situations that come up in life. Many will tell you to go with your heart but that is not always wise! God tells us about our hearts: 

Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?

Is that what you want to rely on in a serious situation? Not me! I want the truth!

Thomas Kempis said “through personal feeling true perspective is easily lost”. How true that is!

So where so we get the truth we need in all situations? God’s word!

Psalm 119:160 The sum of your word is truth, and every one of your righteous rules endures forever.

John 17:17 Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.

Matthew 22:16 And they sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that you are true and teach the way of God truthfully, and you do not care about anyone's opinion, for you are not swayed by appearances.

John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Go with Jesus, The Word, every time and you will get the truth!!!! And your decisions will be made with ultimate wisdom!
