Thought for Today: “Heart Over Mind”

It’s not what you know; rather it’s what you believe!

Knowing the holiness of God, the children of Israel asked Moses to mediate between them and God. They said everything that God told to Moses they would do.

And the Lord said, “They are right in all that they have spoken.” (Deuteronomy 5:28)

But then the Lord went on to say, “Oh, that they had such a heart in them that they would fear Me and always keep all My commandments, that it might be well with them and with their children forever.” (Deuteronomy 5:29)

While our minds have great ideals, it’s our hearts that puts them into practice. It’s not the intelligence of the mind where we falter; rather it’s in the desire of the heart.
