What is in your Heart?

Praise God from whom all blessings flow. This week has been a bit of a challenge for me. I have been dealing with disappointments.  Sometimes people are not who they appear to be and that revelation is always painful.
“Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue lasts only a moment” - Proverbs 12:19

A person can only hide behind their mask for so long, eventually who they truly are will surface.  What’s in your heart?  When a person makes a commitment to serve the Lord it is important that they submit themselves to the perfect will of God. God wants us to live a righteous life. The definition of righteous is: characterized by or proceeding from accepted standards of morality or justice. That’s why the Bible says: "the...prayer of a righteous man availeth much" - James 5:16.  Why is it so hard for some to be real?

The only remedy for this particular disappointment is to pray and love.  The devil is so busy; the only way to combat evil is with love.  People will disappoint you; they are only human. God has promised us He will never leave us alone, so put your trust in God.  A few weeks ago I wrote about “Distractions”, and disappointment is a distraction. A distraction is something that keeps you from your focus on serving the Lord. Continue to love those people that disappoint you, pray for them; but you must remain focused on Godly things. Be an example of what you want people to be. Remember, God is faithful!
