🧡 Heart Posture Matters: Aligning with God’s Will

What does the posture of your heart say about where you're headed?

We live in a world that glorifies hustle, independence, and performance. But God looks beyond all of that straight into our hearts. He’s not impressed by titles, to-do lists, or appearances. What truly matters to Him is the posture of our hearts.

“People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7 (NIV)

A heart posture is the inner attitude with which we approach God, others, and our daily lives. It's not just about being a “good person” it’s about surrender, humility, faith, and obedience. It’s about coming before God with open hands and saying:
“Not my will, but Yours be done.”

🙏 Signs of a Healthy Heart Posture:

  • Surrendered, not striving
    You're no longer chasing your own plans but trusting God's timing and direction.

  • Teachable, not prideful
    You're willing to be corrected, stretched, and molded - even when it's uncomfortable.

  • Grateful, not grumbling
    You choose contentment over comparison and worship over worry.

  • Available, not distracted
    You show up for God, even in the small things, with intentionality and expectation.

💡 Reflect: What’s Your Heart Saying?

Take a moment today to pause and ask yourself:

  • Is my heart soft toward God’s voice?

  • Am I seeking His approval or the world’s?

  • Do I trust Him with the areas I can’t control?

If your answer isn’t what you hoped, that’s okay. God’s grace is not performance-based it’s presence-based. He meets you right where you are, and He’s always more concerned with your direction than your perfection.

✨ Heart Check Challenge:

This week, take 5 minutes each day to realign your heart. Here’s a simple prayer to start:

“Lord, posture my heart toward You.
Help me to release control, trust You deeper, and walk in faith.
Remove anything that’s keeping me from fully following You.
In Jesus’ name, amen.”

Your purpose, your creativity, and your calling all flow from the condition of your heart. Keep it guarded, soft, and surrendered - because from it flows the wellspring of life (Proverbs 4:23).
