and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul (life), and with all your mind (thought, understanding), and with all your strength.’
Mark 12:30 (AMP)
While your emotions matter, they are not the final word. While you often rely on the state of your emotions, it is my Spirit within you that will cause you to walk in my statutes, spurring you forward on the race set before you.
So, bring me your wayward emotions, feelings, and hurts. I am the one who deals with these. I care about your intimate life. Bring your heart to me. Bring your soul to me. Bring your mind to me.
All must be brought before me in obedience, and I will mould the transformation you desire to see.
Activation: Reflect on one thing, from your heart, soul, or mind that currently results in a lack of peace. Ask God for His revelation as to the source and then choose to respond the way God leads you.
See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.
Hebrews 12:15 (NIVUK)
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?
10 “I the Lord search the heart and test the mind,[a] to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”
Jeremiah 17:9-10 (ESV)
