Proverbs 27:19 states, "As in water face reflects face, so a man's heart reveals the man." I believe that a common mistake that we often make with ourselves is we fail to unpack the condition of our heart. We see here in a proverbs, who we are as a person is revealed to us by our heart. We can build ourselves up as if we are these generous, loving individuals, however if our heart is hardened, so are we as a person. If our heart is full of fear, we are, even if we don't want to admit it, a fearful person. If our heart is full of ego and pride, despite what we tell ourselves or tell other people, we are a prideful person. I believe it is of the UTMOST importance that we each take the time to understand the current condition of our heart, and to not allow the "accomplishments", the money, or the attention we get from others to cloud our perception of the state of our heart. Luke tells us that "out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks". Taking a moment to simply reflect on what comes out of our mouths, serves as a critical 1st step towards understanding where our heart lies.
