GOD KNOWS MY HEART!
I find it funny how people in a dispute with others often declare that God knows their hearts.
Yes, God in Jer 17:9 says “the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?”
God does know our heart, the real question is, do we? Since the heart is so deceitful, do we really know ourselves?
People who associate with us often see things we are unaware of; they can see patterns and habits we miss.
Since our own hearts are so deceptive, unless we are very open minded and willing to learn, we are apt to be fooled.
Our minds can tell us lies and excuses, which the carnal nature is very willing to believe.
Lies are always being whispered to us, unless we have a strong conscience, we are liable to be duped.
It is true that there are rascals who pretend to be your friend until they stir up trouble and cause drama.
We all know the type and have at times unfortunately had to deal with their breed.
But we better be very careful in claiming that we are correct and our hearts are in the right.
Unless we are the type who do regular self examination, we are apt to be as deceived as the people we are arguing with.
