What’s in the Well, Comes Up in the Bucket - Proverbs 26-27

Proverbs 27:19
As water reflects a face, So a man’s heart reflects the man.


 This is a word picture proverb. The picture is of a man who stops by a pool of water and bends down, perhaps to get a drink. Has his face draws closer to the pool he begins to see his reflection. No matter how hard he tries he cannot hide the look on his face. The pool, like a mirror, is always accurate. So, too, is do we reflect what is really in our hearts. We can’t hide the real feelings we have in our inner being. Just as the pool of water accurately reflects the expression and character of our face, so too does our life reflect the true character of our hearts. The only way you improve on the reflection of the pool is to change the face. And, the only way to change the life we act out is to change the heart. And, the only way to change the heart is to give it to the Chief Heart Surgeon, Jesus Christ. Only Christ can change a life by changing the heart. Give Him your heart and He can make life changes for you.
