The Transformed Heart, “What the Bible says about the Heart,”

Many of my senior adult friends are having heart problems. Just last week one friend had a heart attack. These days our conversations include terms like “cardial infarction” and procedures like Angiogram/Cardiac Catheterization. This pamphlet provoked a new thought process for me. The Transformed Heart, “What the Bible says about the Heart,” shows us we need to recognize the signs of an unhealthy spiritual heart.  As time draws near for our exit from this earthly realm, we need to prepare for our “Home Going.” Most Christians have asked Jesus into their heart, but we need to address our spiritual heart issues. One colorful chart helps us examine the condition of the heart and a question to ask. Example: a hard heart Ephesians 4:18. Question: Am I resistant to God's word or will? A bright red heart shape draws our attention to Our external life: What we say and what we do. Our internal life: What trips us up; what drives us; what we try to hide. Spiritual heart care is vital in a Christian’s life. Six questions are provided to help you assess your current heart condition. My favorite section of the pamphlet is the detailed charts showing the “Marks of a Transformed Heart.” The orange colored charts have descriptive meanings and include scripture that illustrates that trait. Example: a delightful heart, Psalm 37:4 "to be satisfied in God at the core of your being." John 15:5 reminds us that apart from Jesus we can do nothing to change our own heart. As the Holy Spirit reveals an unhealthy heart habits, we must acknowledge our sin and renounce bad attitudes and habit. This would be a great Sunday School lesson for my women’s class. Henderson/Rose publishing gave me this PDF for an honest and fair review.
