Calvary Church Bentonville

We have learned to guard our behavior but have never learned to monitor our hearts. We are tempted to treat the symptoms that stem from an unhealthy spiritual heart while ignoring the deeper issues. There are four primary enemies of the heart that poison our relationships, our faith, and even our character. Pastor discusses one of those heart-attackers, guilt, and how to overcome it.

Life can be hard on the heart, because the world is full of outside influences that have the power to disrupt its rhythm. Over time you develop habits that slowly erode your heart’s sensitivity. The inevitable pain and disappointment of life cause you to set up walls around your heart. At the end of the day, your heart gets out of sync with the rhythm it was created to maintain. And if left alone, these “heart attackers” will linger for a lifetime and do incredible damage. The big question we must ask is “How is your heart. Not your career, your family, or your finances…your heart.” Is everything okay with your heart?

Sometimes along the road of life we encounter a event that pierces us, but we’re never poisoned. Jesus was pierced and poisoned for us, but with His perfect love he rose again so that we could live free of poison. You maybe pierced. but get up and shake it off, because you may be pierced, but you’re not poisoned.

How much further along would we be if we spent more time praying than we did anything else? Many times, we try to fix the situation but sometimes we need to quit trying to fix it and give it to God. He didn’t ask us to believe everything He tells us but what He commands us to do is to receive it. In the wilderness, the desire to fix everything will die and in that moment, God is made strong. Sometimes God will allow us to break for us to be made into what He has planned for us.
