Where is your heart

As Christians, we strongly want to know and do God's will. In Ephesians chapter 5 verse 17, we are exhorted not to be foolish, but we understand what God's will is. Therefore, it is not an argument to belittle. Instead, we must all pay special attention to understand the fundamental principles that should be the basis of our processes in decision making.

There are specific moments and moments in life when this becomes a challenge. Think of a crucial decision such as: choosing your career, your life partner, your friends, among other things. You want God to speak to you as clearly as possible. You don't want to make mistakes that you know you'll regret for the rest of your life.

The first and most important thing that all of us should do is understand our heart is in "a good place." Being in "a good place" means examining ourselves to see if doing God's will is something important for us, if this is something that genuinely interests us. If this is your case, then your heart is in the right place.

When you want to honor God in decision making, if God is the most important person in your life and your opinion matters and respects you, then without any shadow of a doubt your heart is in the right place. You have nothing to fear. This is the first step towards understanding God's will for you.

God has given us free will. We have to choose the right thing, however, at the same time, God makes us responsible for our decisions. For this reason, God tells us two essential things regarding our hearts:

Keep your heart above everything, because everything we do flows from it.

Where your treasure is, your heart will also be.

When you have to make an important life decision, who do you go to? Whose opinion do you value most? If the answer is God, he has taken the first step towards understanding his will.
