The heart is a very powerful organ it controls the pumping of blood to all of the other organs. Dangerous waste gets removed and oxygen gets carried through blood it really is an essential organ. Besides the heart controlling all of the blood and oxygen it is often referred to as changing or having changes through feelings which is really controlled from the brain. Our emotions are controlled from the brain, the heart and brain work together and that's where my topic begins. How do we have a change of heart, how can we care for others that we do not care for? How can we pray for others that are enemies to us? All great questions right Well the answer is simple. In the Bible God Says that Philippians 2:3-4 Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit , but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.
Remembering what the bible says about prayers for others will help us know how to treat others as well. It will definitely show us how to have a "change of heart". Praying for others will help you grow as a person mentally and spiritually and growth is what we need in order to get closer to God. I have learned that forgiveness is not for the other person but it is for you, harboring ill feelings will only break you down and cause you stress.This year I was challenged already forgiving and learning how to let it go. Letting go is forgiveness 100% just saying the words I forgive you or I'm sorry will not suffice if you still have ill feelings towards a person or choose not to interact with or around them. God commands us to love one another and we as God's children should honor his word.
I pray that this passage will help many people whom are lost in dwelling on ill feelings of anger, fear, annoyance and just plain hate take comfort in knowing how to deal with it. Praying for others and 100% forgiveness will help your heart in the long haul and help you to have a "change of heart".
