We kicked off our new sermon series today entitled “Getting back on track”. Getting back on track starts with guarding your heart.

1. “Be true to the quest at any cost, stray from the path and you will be lost.” Ruth Sanderson
2. The heart refers to the totality of one’s inner person.
3. The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is  evil; for his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart. (Luke 6:45)
4. Getting on track starts with guarding your heart.
5. My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words. (Proverbs 4:20)
6. Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. (Proverbs 4:23)
7. But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned. (Matthew 12:36-37)
8. You Lord must be the owner of my heart.
9. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my rock and my Redeemer. (Psalm 19:14)
10. “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.” Winston Churchill
