Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life.
Proverbs 4:23
What is meant by 'heart' in this verse?
Who is responsible for this guarding?
What do you need to guard your heart from?
What is meant by 'life' in thbis verse'

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge Him
and He will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6
What are we afraid of?
Why are we afraid?
What do we base our trust on?
How do we acknowledge Him? What does that look like?

So, I went shopping with Michelle the other day. I specifically asked her to come because, well, I am pretty much a fashion cripple and she seems to have good taste and works in a retail clothing outlet.
Get this. I bought pairs of pants which were worn out!! Seriously, they had frays on the seems and looked like they'd been washed a million times. What the heck? I even bought a matching shirt, looking completely worn out.
One of the pairs of jeans came with wrinkles and ... *sigh* ... when I washed them, said wrinkles vanished. I WANT MY MONEY BACK !!!!
Seriously, I think I need help.

"For the Lord gives wisdom
and from his mouth come knowledge
and understanding."
Proverbs 2: 6
So just how does the Lord 'give' wisdom?
Surely from his Word, no? What about the Holy Spirit?
Does the 'knowledge and understanding' refer to universals or is it just limited to biblical/spiritual wisdom?
How does he speak to you?
Do you listen?
