There are two things that pierce the human heart: beauty and affliction
David describes the enemies ways as arrows - Psalms 91:3-5

We have many arrows that fly in during our life:
  • Being picked on in school
  • A breakup
  • Being fired
  • Abandonment
  • Disappointment

What will we do with the Arrows we have known?

The message of the Arrows is always the same: Kill your heart
Divorce it, neglect it, run from it, or indulge it with some addiction

How did the Arrows come to you?
Where did they land? Are they still there?
What have you done as a result?

Deciding not to be affected can not done - the heart can not be managed though a x number step process
We form can convictions with a conscious effort


Key Phrase: The message of the Arrows is always the same: Kill your heart
