Proverbs 4:23 "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life."
As much as we are careful about what we say, I strongly believe we should be as much careful about what we hear. Words listened to are as much vital as words spoken. I remember having a conversation with someone some few years back, he said so many things which shook my belief system in Christ so much that for days, I felt a certain force trying to weigh me down from my shoulders down all over my body, I had to spend a specific time during the day to pray and remind myself of my experiences with Christ. I'd never forget that period of my life. Friend, you must guard your mind against certain words and conversations. As much as you stay careful about what you speak. Stay careful about what you hear. Jesus says (Mark 4:24 )"...Take heed what ye hear:..." . Spend as much time in turning "deaf ears" to conversations that are not in line with your personality. The fact your ears are open doesn't mean your mind should be open as well. Do have a fruitful day ahead.
