Proverbs 4:23  
Guard your heart above all else,
for it determines the course of your life. (NLT)

Unguarded hearts lead to disregard for self and others. 

Unguarded hearts invite pests and varmints.

Unguarded hearts hear hurtful and harmful stories.

Unguarded hearts see and gaze upon stirring sights leading to unwholesome responses.

Unguarded hearts taste and see sweetness before it turns bitter.

Unguarded hearts choose with feelings that become ever more treacherous. 

Unguarded hearts are careless.

The path of personal destruction begins with an unguarded heart. 

The path of esteem begins with a well-guarded heart.

The path of success begins with a well-guarded heart.

The path of joy begins with a well-guarded heart. 

The path of beauty begins with a well-guarded heart.

The path of safety begins with a well-guarded heart.

The path of delight begins with a well-guarded heart. 

Well-guarded hearts are careful and wise. 

As an old song says, “it’s not too late to change the path you’re on.” 

However, the time to decide is today. 
What does God say? 
Guard your heart today. 
These are words to hear and obey.

I will guard my heart so that I stay on the right course.

Our Father, protect me from unnecessary heartache and heartbreak. Teach me how to protect my heart so that there is always increasing capacity for goodness and love. Teach me how to protect my heart so that nothing can hinder my capacity for kindness and joy. Amen.

Daily D – 2 Thessalonians 1:3

2 Thessalonians 1:3 “Dear brothers and sisters, we can’t help but thank God for you, because your faith is flourishing and your love for one another is growing.”

Daily D – 1 Thessalonians 1:2-3

1 Thessalonians 1:2, 3 “We always thank God for all of you and pray for you constantly. As we pray to our God and Father about you, we think of your faithful work, your loving deeds, and the enduring hope you have because of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Daily D – Colossians 2:8-10

Colossians 2:8-10 “Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ. For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority.”

Daily D – Philippians 2:2-5

Philippians 2:2-5 Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose.

Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.

You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had.

Daily D – Ephesians 4:1-6

Ephesians 4:1-6 Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God. Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love. Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace. For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future. There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all, in all, and living through all.
