HEART THINKING

God created us and His Spirit lives in our heart. However we have been trained to think with our head and not our heart. Thinking in our head is analytical thinking. It is a process of analysing the pros and cons before coming to a conclusion. Thinking in our hearts is intuitional. The heart does not analyse. It just does. God speaks to us through our spirit. He is Spirit and He communicates His thoughts and feelings to our spirit. This may come in the form of dreams and visions or revelations. Our mind is than enlightened and we come to a new understanding. This kind of knowledge is different from the knowledge we gain from books or other sources of information. Heart  knowledge heals the soul. We can receive some healing through head knowledge but it is limited. Heart knowledge is revelational that heals the roots and sets the captive free. When we begin to communicate at a heart level a whole new world opens up before us. Once we were blind and now we see from a new dimension. It is like seeing a flower and describing its characteristics but failing to appreciate the beauty within it. It is a aha experience that brings about transformation and this is a heart experience and not a head experience. Love is the language of the heart and not the head. The head tries to understand love but the heart feels it. When one communicates at a head level with another who communicates at a heart level there will be misunderstanding and miscommunication. Heart to heart communication brings life to a relationship. God chose to communicate to us through our heart for He wants a relationship with us. Once we begin to communicate with our hearts than our relationship with Him and others begins to take a new course. Love is a fruit of the Spirit and the characteristics of love are peace, joy, patience, kindness, goodness, gentlemess, faithfulness and self control.
