So, how does that happen? What do you do to get to know your own heart and the obstacles that reside in there? There are different things that can be said here. I'm going to pick this one: piety. Piety is about having a growing awareness of God and understanding what it means that He is God and you aren't. Piety is about having a willing spirit instead of being stubborn. It's about seeing the beauty of the Father and experiencing His majestic power instead of being ignorant of such things. It's about having an assurance of being liked so much by the Father that you don't need to be liked by anyone else. It's about who the real God is and knowing that none of those idols make the cut. Piety. It is by getting to know God that we get to know ourselves.
