Real Life

Proverbs 14:30, 27:4, James 3:14-16, Galatians 5:19-21

It has been proven that what a person keeps in their heart (inner person) affects their physical condition as well. We are reminded many times in the Bible it is vitally important that the heart (inner person) is kept free from jealousy, envy, bitterness, anger, resentment, anger, not forgiving, and the like. If these sins remain in the heart (inner person) a person is likely to:

• Be discouraged

• Speak unkind words

• Have a bad, irritable attitude

• Cause trouble with relationships

If a person wants real life they must let God care for people and situations in life. The great key for a person to be free is obedience to the Bible and the leading of the Holy Spirit. So, stop for a few moments and check your heart for sins (thoughts) that affect the physical. If one wants real life then the heart must be right.

Prayer: Lord, show me what I really have in my heart and show me how my relationships need to be adjusted as I respond in obedience to You in all ways.
