—Proverbs 3:3-10
by: J. Gabriel Alegre.
What is written on the tablet of your heart? This question is important—as you think in your heart, you are (Proverbs 23:7). Whatever fills your heart will govern how you are. This passage instructs us on some things which should fill our heart: God’s law, our obedience, mercy, truth, and trust in God. A heart so filled has no room for malice, selfishness, arrogance, or worldly wisdom. Fear the Lord and depart from evil—doing so will be health to your body and strength to your bones. God is ready, willing, and able to bless. If you are ready to receive his blessings, ask yourself, “Is my heart filled with things which find favor and high esteem in the sight of God and man?”
