Don't Listen to Your Heart

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think about the words I’ve said,

The things that I have done,

And my heart condemns me until

I give up all I’ve won.

 

I’ve worked to be a better me,

Learned to forgive, show grace,

But with one reminder of shame

I’m back in that same place.

 

I hold no hope that I will grow

Beyond whom I have been,

Until I hear Him remind me

He’s taken all that sin.

 

My heart may chastise me all day,

But His love holds more weight.

Though I may bow my head in shame

His love is my true fate.

 

Let my heart call me by my shame,

His voice is all I hear.

I’ll tell my heart, sit down and hush,

His love speaks loud and clear!

 

1 John 3: 19-20

By this we shall know that we are of the truth and reassure our heart before him; for whenever our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and he knows everything.
