A Heart at Peace

Proverbs 14 & 15

"A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones" (Proverbs 14:30).

What is in my heart? What am I seeking after? What do I desire? How do I invest my time, energy and resources? What do I think about most often? Are these qualities in my heart? Am I pursuing these things?
  • peace (14:30)
  • wisdom (14:33)
  • knowledge (15:7)
  • discernment (15:14)
  • cheerfulness (15:15, 30)
  • righteousness (15:28)
  • the fear of the Lord (14: 26-27; 15:33)
  • humility (15:33)

Remember, the heart of man is wide open before the Lord (15:11).
