Coração
O coração é o centro do ser humano — sede dos pensamentos, emoções e decisões. A Bíblia ensina a guardar, purificar e render o coração a Deus como oferta viva.
Guardar o coração
Sobre tudo o que se deve guardar, guarda o teu coração, porque dele procedem as fontes da vida e de toda decisão.
Guard your heart with all diligence,
for from it flow springs of life.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and lean not on your own understanding;
Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He will make your paths straight.
My son, do not forget my teaching,
but let your heart keep my commandments;
for they will add length to your days,
years and peace to your life.
Never let loving devotion or faithfulness leave you;
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart.
Then you will find favor and high regard
in the sight of God and man.
A tranquil heart is life to the body,
but envy rots the bones.
A wise heart will receive commandments,
but foolish lips will come to ruin.
Coração puro
Cria em mim um coração puro, ó Deus. Ensina-me a contar meus dias para que tenha um coração sábio.
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
and renew a right spirit within me.

and renew a right spirit within me.
So teach us to number our days,
that we may present a heart of wisdom.
May the words of my mouth
and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing in Your sight,
O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
Be strong and courageous,
all you who hope in the LORD.
Delight yourself in the LORD,
and He will give you the desires of your heart.
May He give you the desires of your heart
and make all your plans succeed.
Blessed are those who keep His testimonies
and seek Him with all their heart.
I will praise You with an upright heart
when I learn Your righteous judgments.
With all my heart I have sought You;
do not let me stray from Your commandments.
Buscar a Deus de coração
Amarás ao Senhor teu Deus de todo o coração. A busca sincera leva ao encontro; o coração dividido leva à ruína.
Jesus declared, "‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
"Truly I tell you that if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and has no doubt in his heart but believes that it will happen, it will be done for him.
The heart is deceitful above all things
and beyond cure.
Who can understand it?

I, the LORD, search the heart;
I examine the mind
to reward a man according to his way,
by what his deeds deserve.
You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.
But be very careful to observe the commandment and the law that Moses the servant of the LORD gave you: to love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways, to keep His commandments, to hold fast to Him, and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul."
And I will give them singleness of heart and put a new spirit within them; I will remove their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh,
I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.
Conhecer o coração
O homem olha para a aparência, mas o Senhor olha para o coração. Deus conhece os segredos mais profundos.
But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or height, for I have rejected him; the LORD does not see as man does. For man sees the outward appearance, but the LORD sees the heart."

As water reflects the face,
so the heart reflects the true man.
A joyful heart is good medicine,
but a broken spirit dries up the bones.
Commit your works to the LORD
and your plans will be achieved.
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair or gold jewelry or fine clothes, but from the inner disposition of your heart, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in God’s sight.
Each one should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not out of regret or compulsion. For God loves a cheerful giver.
But thanks be to God that, though you once were slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were committed.
so that He may establish your hearts in blamelessness and holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all His saints. Amen.
do not harden your hearts,
as you did in the rebellion,
in the day of testing in the wilderness,
