Guarding Your Heart

Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life. – Proverbs 4:23 NKJV

Our hearts are the wellspring of life—what flows from them impacts everything we say and do. Setting healthy boundaries is a form of guarding the heart. It’s not just about avoiding bad influences but also about ensuring our words, actions, and intentions reflect a heart anchored in Christ.

Application:
Evaluate the influences in your life and how they shape your heart and actions. Set and maintain boundaries that protect your peace, spiritual health, and relationship with God. When you guard your heart, joy, love, and peace will flow freely from within.

Connection:
Thank You, Lord, for helping me establish boundaries to guard my mind and heart. May I honor and glorify You in my choices. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
