Proverbs 4:23 “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.”

 

Everything we do flows from the heart, connects to the heart, and goes through the heart.

Everything we do is birthed in the heart. Therefore, to understand life and all of its undertakings, we need to grasp the way the heart works and communicate in relation to the heart.

 

God desires our hearts, as do each of the people we love and who love us. 

 

All the scientific and philosophical, and all of the archaeological and psychological discoveries matter, as does reason itself. This “Living with Heart” podcast doesn’t discount any area of discovery or knowledge; however, the heart is the emphasis of this podcast.

 

Blaise Pascal said, “the heart has reasons that reason knows not.”

The central emphasis of this “Living with Heart” podcast is about the “reasoning” and understanding of the “wellspring of life.” 

 

Men and Women are image bearers of God. Every man and woman has the same dignity and worth. 

 

Every man and woman has the same need to belong and matter. Episodes #3 and Episode #4.

 

However, a man’s need to belong and matter possesses some unique qualities as to how the needs are met, as does the woman’s need to belong and matter. These unique qualities are most evident in the relationship between a woman and a man. 

 

As we talk about the differences between a man and a woman, we emphasize the equality of worth, because for so many eons women have been categorized as “less than” a man. 

 

A man’s need to belong and matter is met by a woman primarily through appreciation.

A woman’s need to belong and matter is met by a man primarily through security.

 

For a man to receive the fullness of a woman’s heart and the appreciation that follows, he must know that:

  • Her need of and experience of security is crucial. 
  • Her security precedes her capacity to express genuine appreciation. 
  • She needs to be secure in her heart before she can fully and vulnerably meet the need of appreciation in the man she loves. 
  •  

    Her security is inextricably connected to knowing that she is CHOSEN as his one and only; she needs to have faith that his heart is dedicated to:

    • her well-being, and he has a deep commitment to the full development of her heart
    • the protection of her unique qualities and character
    • she trusts that he will provide for her daily care
