1. The Heart
"Merry"
2. The Hope
"Doeth good"
3. The Help
"Like a medicine"
4. The Hurt
"But a broken spirit"
5. The Harm
"Drieth the bones"
Which begs the questions how do we encourage ourselves and keep ourselves engaged in a merry heart?
Please Consider-
1. Guard
Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Proverbs 4:23
2. Trust
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:5-6
3. Hide
Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Psalm 119:11
4. Let Not
1. Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. John 14:1-3
