takeaways

The phrase 'less of me, more of you' can be misleading and semantically confusing.

Jeremiah 17:9 is often misinterpreted as the heart being deceitful and wicked, but the original Hebrew suggests depth and vulnerability.

God's examination of the heart is about getting to the true self, not condemning it.

Understanding the Hebrew roots of words like 'deceitful' can transform our interpretation of scripture.

Embracing our inner depths allows us to discern God's voice more clearly and live authentically.

"The higher realms are already within us."

"The heart is vulnerable, not wicked."

"Our ego points us to what our soul longs for."
