There’s a little Gollum inside all of us.
The heart is where you make choices motivated by your desires.

shapes your identity, drives your behavior
CHRISTIAN LIFE
The process of learning to curate my heart
Growing Deep has a lot more to do with our hearts than it does our minds.
You Are What You Love by James K. A. Smith

You are what you love because you live toward what you want.
The heart is where you make choices motivated by your desires.
We all have something we treasure above all else.
If your eyes are generous, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are stingy, your whole body will be full of darkness.
The way we handle our wealth is a reflection of what is in our hearts.
When you grasp the essence of your life through the lens of Jesus, you realize there's everything to gain and nothing to lose by trying to live like Jesus.
Seeing the World The Eyes of Jesus Requires:
• Be Content With What You Have
• Be Generous With What You Have
We all have something we treasure above all else.
We always pay dearly for chasing after what is cheap.
