The Old Testament prophet, Jeremiah said that “The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?” What does that mean? It means that we can’t trust the leadings of our own hearts. We can be conned by our heart! Jesus would say in the gospel of Mark that the heart is where all kinds of “bad stuff” have its origin in your life and mine! He further illuminated that thought by saying it’s not what goes into our bodies that contaminates, it’s what comes out the heart that does!
