The Heart Reflects the Man (Proverbs 27)
In the Bible Proverbs 27:19 says, "...the heart of man reflects the man." It's the heart of a person-their mind, their passions, what they value in life-that makes it clear what someone is really about. Our world judges on the outside but God looks on the heart and so should we. Especially our own heart. We have this uncanny ability to fool ourselves and get so wrapped up in doing we forget to ask what that reveals about our passions and values. So let's ask, "What does my heart reflect about me?

Ron: Do you know your heart?
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: In the Bible Proverbs 27:19 says, “…the heart of man reflects the man.” It’s the heart of a person—their mind, their passions, what they value in life—that makes it clear what someone is really about. Our world judges on the outside: what people do, clothes they wear, people they associate with. But God looks on the heart. And so should we. Especially our own heart.
We have this uncanny ability to fool ourselves by getting so wrapped up in doing and achieving that we forget to ask what all of that reveals about our passions and values. So, let’s ask, “What does my heart reflect about me?” For FamilyLife Blended, I’m Ron Deal.
