Things In Common - The Heart

The heart is like that of a computer, what you put in will come out. I was thinking  about life's trails,  testings, difficulties, fears and how it really builds character in us. It doesn't feel good when we are going through difficult times, but it is to make us into who God has created us to be. I realize that God will allow us to go through a time of testing just to see what is in our heart. What is in your heart? Will you stand and trust Him or will you crumble under pressure. What is in our heart is what's going to come out.  Apostle Peter writes "Be glad about this, even though it may now be necessary for you to be sad for a while because of the many kinds of trails you suffer. Their purpose is to prove that your faith is genuine. Even gold, which can be destroyed, is tested by fire; and so your faith, which is much more precious than gold, must also be tested, so that it may endure. Then you will receive praise and glory and honor on the Day when Jesus Christ is revealed" (I Peter 1:6,7.. Good News Bible). Therefore keep your heart fill with songs, with love, with joy, with kindness, happiness and with faith, knowing that it is making us into the very image of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I will tell you this, what is in your heart will shine through, so let it be the Son.
