Our Heart is the Well-Spring of our Life and relates closely to our Garden of Life in Christ Jesus. We need to watch over it daily and monitor what goes into it and out of it. This can include making some protective boundaries too.
Our Spiritual Garden – Kingdom Blessings
All life is comprised of SEEDS we sow into it and seeds sown by others. Jesus told us a parable of the “Kingdom of God” and mentioned different types of Soil. He said that one was choked up with “the cares of life” and on the other hand, there was Good Soil that was really nice for planting Good Seeds_ a good environment for His Words, that yielded 100% the other, that had been overgrown with anxious cares and concerns: unhealthy thoughts did not yield much from these “God’s Seeds”. You know friends, that parable not only speaks of those who don’t know Jesus, but us as well in effect, because the Kingdom of God consists of the “Goodness, Peace and Joy of His Spirit”, His Word tells us…….and also, “the Kingdom of God is within us” and we are the Garden Keepers – as it were. Daily, we need to nurture this garden and weed out any seedlings that don’t belong there if we want room for the Blessings of God. Look after the Joy seeds, the seeds of Peace and He will keep showing His Goodness……then your heart and life will become like a Watered Garden full of Good Things, Peace and Joy. When you’re living in this experience, believe me…..that’s a real practical application_ it means more than theory.
So, taking care of our garden means that we need to weed those seedlings each day so they don’t build up and crowd the Good Things in your life. This saves your life from becoming complicated and complex. If you try this, you will find your spirit getting stronger; problems will be less in a Healthy Environment and you will begin to live in the GOODNESS OF GOD!
Guard your Heart – The Well-Spring of Life
In certain situations (work or family) it may not be possible to determine ALL that a day or week involves, but we can choose what goes into our spirit and keep watch over our hearts because they are “Our Well-Spring of Life”……..”Keep a vigilant watch over this Well-Spring for out of it flow the issues of life” – His Word says – monitor what goes into it and what comes out of it. Keep your spirit sweet.
This helps you to stay Above, so you can Reign in Life…..this is part of what it means to Reign in Christ Jesus_ keeping your spirit strong and not allowing those things in our hearts and minds that would weaken our spirit……like being anxious or fretful; gloomy or resentful; envious of others; building negative mindsets; unforgiveness for offenses made……..all these things taint and weaken our spirit, and the way we deal with these things determines how truly spiritual we are, how victorious. To live in Victory_ we cannot skip the Basics.
We basically Set the Terrain for our daily lives = living. God can’t do it ALL. It’s up to us, what we give Him to work with. When we “Keep our Spirit Sweet”, the sun (Son) can shine on us….and….we can sense the fresh “Breeze of the Holy Spirit” moving in our hearts and lives…….the Father can feel free to BLESS US. We have discovered on this Page why so many Christians are not experiencing the many Blessings His Word speaks of – they’re just not evident in the lives of so many.
