Living from the heart... that's what I'm learning more and more these days!Joel Bruesekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10395847887953875757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29606082.post-42021987890542081562010-03-02T06:11:29.020-06:002010-03-02T06:11:29.020-06:00Joel, we were meant to live from our heart, not by...Joel, we were meant to live from our heart, not by a list of dos and don’ts. The church has so burdened the people down with rules that it’s sapped the life out of them. What was meant to be spontaneous and organic has now become programmed. We struggle to keep the rules but somehow we know that we’re never good enough. <br /><br />Learning to throw out the rules and just live by my heart has been an ongoing process but it has restored to me the joy of living free in a relationship with God that the rules never accomplished. Also, I’m finding that my heart is a reliable guide as I wade through the complexities of life and relationships. <br /><br />Great post! Can’t wait for part 2.Aidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09885702269506142727noreply@blogger.com
