This Q&A answers five practical questions about seeing with the heart. To allow God to change our hearts, we must first see them, as God led Israel through the wilderness to reveal what was in their hearts; circumstances and even offence expose what is inside. We then humble our hearts and bring them into God’s presence, where they become soft and tender. A hardened heart is intransigent, proud, resistant to God and slow to believe; often what looks like a faith problem is a heart problem, because “love believes all things.” To see circumstances from God’s perspective, we start by asking Him to show us what we don’t see, then meditate on His promises until they become the lens through which we look at the world. Developing a biblical mindset means recognising and repenting of old thought patterns and deliberately walking God’s paths until, like a footpath across a field, they become the natural way. Finally, guarding against bitterness means accepting that life is unfair to everyone, choosing what we allow to stay inside us, forgiving quickly and thoroughly, and refusing to revisit offences, praying daily, “Search me, O God, and know my heart.”
