What is your heart searching for? Is it peace, affirmation or affection? Neither are wrong or even bad, in perspective. If balanced and weighed against MY will, then each is justified.
However, when a natural desire overrides your spirit. When a gift becomes greater than the gift, giving God. You are now choosing another god. Be careful, many a man has been overcome by his ambitions.
Better men have fallen, what are you doing to safeguard your heart? Pride says, I have it under control, no need to worry. You and pride are both fools. When souls are on the line, you must take every thought captive.
Even the thought, behind each string of thoughts. Whose righteousness do you have, does it come from ME or is it self appointed and self secured. Two have gone before you on the same path, Lucifer and Job. O’ King find your glory, search for MY heart.
Proverbs 25:2
It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out.
