What is the "secret" to being emotionally healthy?
Why are some relationships better and more satisfying than others?
How come some people are so much easier to get along with than others
(and, vice-versa)?
In this episode, I discuss the one essential factor I believe answers these questions.
The bad news is not everyone has it; but, the good news is each of us can develop it. 

Here are some of the Scripture references I include in this episode:

“Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the
hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.” 
(Psalm 51:6)

Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the issues of life.”
(Proverbs 4:23)

“And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye,
but do not consider the plank in your own eye?
Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’;
and look, a plank is in your own eye?
Hypocrite!
First remove the plank from your own eye,
and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”
 
(Jesus - Matthew 7:1-5)

The heart is deceitful above all things,
And desperately wicked;
Who can know it?
I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind”
(Jeremiah 17:9-10).

“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes,
But the
Lord weighs the hearts.”
(Proverbs 21:2)

Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me, and know my anxieties;
And see if there is any wicked way in me,
And lead me in the way everlasting”
(Psalm 139:23-24).
