The heart is hopelessly dark and deceitful, a puzzle that no one can figure out. But I, God, search the heart and examine the mind. I get to the heart of the human. I get to the root of things. I treat them as they really are, not as they pretend to be. – Jeremiah 17.9,10 (MSG)
There’s a constant war between your heart and your mind; your feelings and your reason; your emotions and your intelligence.
Although the above illustration is quite funny, it could mislead you because it suggests that the heart is stronger than the mind. That’s only true when you let it happen. In reality, your mind is way, way more powerful than your heart.
But which one will win?
The one that you use more often. As with any muscle, it gets stronger with use. Use your heart, your emotions, your feelings more often, and they’ll be stronger. Use your mind, your reason, your intelligence more often, and they’ll prevail.
Bishop Renato Cardoso
It is true Bishop that the one that is fed more is the one that will grow more if we feed our heart our lives will be based on feeling and emotions and the Bible says that the heart is deceitful we should use our mind not feelings indeed!
