“As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart.” – Proverbs 27:19, NIV
Do you notice that too often God is not the center of your goals or plans? Does it seem that you treasure objects or even people above your relationship with God? Do your own desires supersede loving God and others? Your priorities can show a lot about the state of your heart and where you are placing your treasures.
The Bible tells us that our lives reflect the desires of our hearts. Proverbs 27:19 describes the correlation between one’s life and heart as the correlation between a face and its reflection in water. This means if we are spending all our time obsessing over how to get many earthly possessions, we are not giving our hearts over to God and His will completely.
Our lives should reflect the love of Christ, not the love of money or possessions. He is more important than anything we will ever have, and salvation is the greatest treasure to be found.
