What is in your heart?

Proverbs 3 starts by saying how much God's teachings will give you a prosperous and long life.  Added on top of that in verse 5 is this: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart."  The word heart is also mentioned in verse 3: "write [loyalty and faithfulness] on your heart."  These are powerful statements.

Verse 7 is "Never think you are wiser than what you are."

Much of the advice given in Proverbs 3 are simple statements that resonate with such power.  It goes on to say that if you listen to the Lord, he'll bless you with such abundance that you won't have room for it all.

Starting in verse 27, it talks about how to treat your neighbors.  If you are able to help someone right now, do it.  Don't wait until tomorrow.  Help today.

And help often.
