A 30-Second Commercial from "Empowered for Freedom"

Start with a heartbeat sound effect; then--

Do you take the advice of all the movies to follow your own
feelings, only to end up hurting _other_ people's feelings? Do
you demand that others apologize to you, but refuse ever to
apologize to them? Do you listen to your own heart, only to
find yourself in conflict with others who are busy listening to
_their_ hearts?

You could be a case of Deceiving Heart Syndrome!

Jeremiah 17:9 says: "The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately corrupt; who can understand it?"

Every criminal follows his own heart; every psychopath
follows his own heart. Following your feelings is only as
good as the amount of truth your feelings will accept; and
our feelings have a deeply-rooted problem with truth.
Proverbs 14:12 warns: "There is a way that seems right
to a man, but its end is the way to death."

The cure for Deceiving Heart Syndrome is a transplant of
truth from the heart of Jesus Christ, Who is God Incarnate.
He says in Revelation 3:20, "Behold, I stand at the door
and knock..." If your feelings do not immediately respond,
reach your hand for the doorknob anyway. Once you let
Jesus in, He'll help the feelings to get their heads on straight.
