What I Pour Into My Heart Determines the Course of My Life
Guarding My Heart
As a Christian, I am called to guard my heart diligently, for everything I do flows from it. What I allow into my heart will ultimately determine the course of my life. If I fill my heart with negativity, fear, and doubt, my actions and words will reflect that. But if I pour love, joy, peace, and faith into my heart, my life will bear the fruit of those things.
Biblical Principles
- Proverbs 4:23 – “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”
- Philippians 4:8 – “Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
- Matthew 15:18-19 – “But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.”

Prayer
Dear Lord, I confess that I have not always been intentional about what I allow into my heart. Help me to guard my heart diligently and to fill it with things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy. Grant me the strength to resist negativity and to seek after things that will bring joy, peace, and faith into my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.
