Proverbs 4:23, "Guard your heart for out of it are the well springs
of life."
We have the opportunity to protect
ourselves from the daggers and spears thrust at us by others if we so chose. For if we do, then we can live
life as live was intended to be lived. If we don't, we become handicapped and suspect to a miserable existence. I've found the antidote to protection from an old fisherman named Peter. His advise, when he wrote to a bunch of Christ follower's two milinnea ago, was "...above everything else in life, live love for that covers a multitude of sins." (1 Peter 4:8)
In a day when negative assualts and critical comments are common place, when love is the goal and passion of our life, the darts of one's insecurities can in no way puncture a heart saturated with Jesus.
