Listen with your heart
So I actually fell in love with this song now. And I don't really mind Casey Donavan, either. I couldn't stand her before. But anyways, she does sing with magic.
But then, "listen with your heart, listen to your soul...." Is that how it's supposed to be? The Bible actually says, the heart is deceitful above everything(can't find where it is now).
I had a bit of heart experience this week. It really didn't take very long at all that I could slip into the pit just like that. Thankfully God intervened, a good friend talked to me over the phone from the States and he really kind of slapped me on the face a few times and pulled me back. Thank goodness. What a deceitful heart!
Anyway Brian Houston preached a message of the year so to speak last weekend. It was about the leaven. Different leaven can develop into different lump. The lump cannot affect the leaven, but the leaven affects the whole lump. What's inside of us determines what we are outwards. The thoughts, decisions, convictions we hold will bring the whole outcome of where we are and who we are on the outside. The bad kind of leaven speaks to me of self-righteousness, and it will develop into pharasees. The good one is thanksgiving(psalm 50:14), which will lead to the full demonstration of grace, blessings and God's power.
So with thanksgiving coming up, I'll start to work on my attitute toward life around thanksgiving. It is really the beginning of God's kingdom.
