Core Values to Live By
“Allow love and faithfulness to be written on the tablet of your heart“ - Wesleyne
Proverbs 3:3:
Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.
This verse from the Book of Proverbs emphasizes the importance of steadfast love and faithfulness in our lives. These virtues are not to be taken lightly or forgotten, but rather, they should be as close to us as a necklace around our neck, always present and always reminding us of their significance. The imagery of binding them around the neck suggests that they should be visible in our actions and decisions, just as a necklace is often a visible and prominent accessory. Similarly, writing them on the "tablet of your heart" implies that they should be deeply ingrained in our innermost being, influencing our emotions, thoughts, and desires.
Today, you will learn that love and faithfulness are not just fleeting emotions or temporary commitments. They are core values that should be deeply embedded in your character. The heart, in biblical literature, often represents the center of human emotion, will, and intellect. By instructing you to inscribe love and faithfulness on the tablet of your heart, the verse teaches you to make these virtues central to your identity and decision-making. It's a call to internalize these values, ensuring that they guide your actions, shape your relationships, and define your character. In a world where commitments can be fleeting and love can sometimes be conditional, this verse reminds us all of the timeless importance of unwavering love and steadfast faithfulness.
