The Human Heart is Deceitful

The human heart is deceitful… who can know it? Jeremiah 17:9 Within it can rage a great variety of emotions… some to do good… some evil… yet, this ‘knowledge of good and evil’ in a human vessel is still corrupt… still vile. The only righteousness flows from the throne of God.

Yet, so often we listen to our hearts of deceit. We follow the promptings of our heart… We run in earnest to that which feels good.

Pain and suffering, uneasiness and discomfort we… run away from. We believe that God cannot be in the suffering… 2 Corinthians 6:6

What of… the Word of God? In times of trouble do we lean on its secure foundations or do we… follow our hearts?
