Bible Verse of The Day – 7-11-25

Luke 6:45 (LSB) 45 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil. For his mouth speaks from the abundance of his heart.

Here we are, and it’s already Friday!

Let’s talk again today about the human heart ❤️

No, this is not about ventricles, chambers, or aortae. It is about the condition of our heart, where everything that we do emanates from.

What is described in the Bible as the heart is symbolic. It represents our soul, our will, and the mechanism by which we make decisions.

We choose right or wrong based on the condition of what the Bible refers to as our heart.

Despite it being symbolic, and not at all related to the physical muscle that pumps blood throughout our bodies, this concept is critical in our daily lives.

It is a truth that is far-reaching, with implications in every aspect of life.

We can do things to protect our physical heart; eat right, exercise, etc.

But when it comes to the mechanism by which we make choices, there is no amount of proper diet or physical exercise that can help it obey God and make right choices.

The only thing that can help us in that area is to love God and immerse ourselves in His word.

As mentioned previously, it is our love for God that causes us to obey Him and want to honor Him with our lives.

And that love and reverence for Him will not grow if we fail (or refuse) to spend time in His word.

Yes, we have free will. We can choose what to do or not do. We can read and study His word, or we can choose not to.

But our lives will reflect our choices even in this. And our relationship with God will grow or stay small and weak based on what we choose.

Let us choose to love God above all else, that we would honor Him with every action we take, letting His light and His love shine through us onto everyone and everything around us.

Amen
