The heart is foolish at best. It sees life through rose coloured glasses. Although wounded, it can have the capacity to still love, and that can cause one to forget the pain and walk blindly into something one knows it should stay away from. It's quite a dilemna to sit in. When you are weaves a spell over you that pulls you in a direction that your head knows it not to your good. So how do we balance this? How do we decipher which way to turn. For my head and all the heads around me are syaing one thing and they all make sense.......but my heart says another. It says everyone deserves another chance, it says everyone deserve to be granted mercy and grace, it believes in the ability of people to change and it believes the best in EVERYONE.
The heart, well my heart, also takes into account its own wants and desires, and those factors do come into play. And so I find myself gearing up to walk into a situation next week where my head knows that its perhaps not a smart move but my heart sings a different song.
The hears is foolish thing..........
Let us never forget Jer.17:9:
ReplyDeleteThe heart is more deceitful than all else
And is desperately sick;
Who can understand it?
