#927: Guard Your Heart

What does it mean to “guard your heart”?

Proverbs 4:23 says, “Guard your heart above all else, for it is the source of life.”

This proverb is written by a father to his son, but the instructions apply to everyone — no matter their age.

Your heart is the source of your thoughts and feelings. Guarding your heart requires keeping your focus on the things of God. So many things in our world can pull our hearts away from being focused on God.

Remember Philippians 4:8 and “fix your thoughts on what is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.”
