Summary

Main message: Don't simply "follow your heart" when making big decisions because the heart is unreliable; instead seek God's will, which sees the long-term and guides decisions for the future.

Key points:

  • The heart is deceitful and changes its desires quickly (speaker's examples: relationships, haircuts, jobs).
  • Following our own will tends to focus only on immediate circumstances (this week's bank account, this month's stress).
  • God’s perspective is long-term—He sees who we'll become and doors we can't yet see.
  • Before major decisions ask: Is this my will, or God's will?

Scriptures mentioned: Jeremiah 17
