Proverbs 3:5 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart.” Psalm 86:11 reads, “Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart to revere your name.” The word “heart” is used over 700 times in the Bible. Today we think of a person’s heart as a vital organ, the muscle which pumps blood throughout the body, and it is. In ancient times, the heart was considered to be the center of a person’s thinking, feeling, and doing. When we read the Bible, it is important to remember this. Proverbs 4:23 says, “Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flows the springs of life.” Let us learn God’s Word by heart, trust and love God with all our heart, and remember Jesus’ words, “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.” (John 14:1) May God bless your week! Diane Cooke, Pastor, Presbyterian Churches, Willow Springs and Mtn. View.
