This week of classes in Matters of the heart opened my eyes to a new level of my relationship with God, others and myself. I could finally realize the importance of my heart and its purpose in my life.

I need to love God with everything that is in me. My heart controls both my body and it is the center of my being, who I am. It is the center of my spiritual life and human body. Everything within me needs to love God.

When I look into my heart I need to see to the attitude of it. The attitude to everything around me: God, others and myself, all of these are connected with each other. The attitude of my heart determines my life and destiny. We have two commandments “to love God and to love your neighbor as yourself”, and that needs to be my attitude. To always walk in love and my attitude of walking in love must be according to the love of God – unconditional.

The matters of my heart starts with me. I need to have a heart for myself and sort out all the junk that I have in it to get a new Godly heart. I have to start with loving myself with the love of God and then carry on with loving others. If I don’t love myself I can’t fulfill anything of what God has called me to do because I haven’t understood his first commandment. God can’t use me if my heart is not right. I need to take responsibility for my heart and put effort to get it right. I must let the word of God transform my heart, to a heart that he can freely use to reach others.

Everything that has to do with my life and my being comes down to the matters of my heart – for my life starts in my heart. (Pro 4:23)

I want to fulfill Gods plan with my life by having a pure and strong heart. I want God to be able to say that I was a woman after his own heart!
