A life full of colours...

Our heart is one of the most essential organ of our body. Life and death comes from it.

After tonight's Christianity Explored, it really struck me that our heart is so so important. Our heart is the same heart that worships God, loves and cares for others yet it is also the same heart where our evil thoughts arise from. Our heart is the root of all sin and it can be so stubborn and hard at times.
Mark 7:20 - 23 says He(Jesus) went on:" What comes out of a man is what makes him 'unclean'. For from within, ouf of men's hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and make a man 'unclean'.
In short, our heart causes us to sin. Dont tell me that you who's reading this would be able to say confidently that you've never sinned. No one's perfect in this world and our lives have been corrupted with sin. Look at the world out there..

Our hearts lead us to think so highly of ourselves, making us believe that we can do things with our own strength but deep down, we know for the very fact that we're not able to do so.

Jesus makes it so clear by saying 'If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. Mark 9:43 - 44 We definitely cant cut off our heart but we should take comfort that Jesus is there to forgive our sins and He can make our hearts clean again!

Wouldnt the world be a better place if everyone's heart were made clean again and love overflows from every heart?
