Wisdom for living 7 | Guard your heart | Tim Akinluyi

Our Lord Jesus taught that it is those who are pure in heart that will see God. Everything we say or do comes from the heart. If the heart is pure, with undivided devotion and submission to God, the person’s life will be pure, if the heart is impure, the person’s life will be impure. What you allow in your heart determines the course of your life.
It is therefore of primary importance to guard our hearts in real and practical ways. This includes dealing with past impurities, vigilance and diligence in avoiding present corruption of the heart, and on-going intention of perseverance in guarding the heart in the future.
