We are so good at lying to ourselves and then believing the lies to the point of truth. The active work it takes to be honest with ourselves is God's work. And doing God's work is the only thing that pays off.

Jeremiah 17:9-10
“The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?
I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.
Bible Gateway link: Jeremiah 17:9-10 (NKJV)

    Jesus gave every believer in him a helper, his Holy Spirit to guide us in all things. A clear conscience and a repentant heart are vital practices that one must cultivate daily in order to see the truth about ourselves and to continue in the process of sanctification. People become spiritually blind and deaf when they place more importance on worldly pursuits and forget about First seeking the Kingdom of God and his righteousness! Never allow your heart to grow cold or your light to be snuffed out!!! Keep oil in your lamp by studying the scriptures; assembling with other believers; and by continuing giving Praise and Thanks to the Lord! Every Good and perfect gift comes from the Father above!
