Today we're talking about guardrails. This is our fourth in the series on guardrails. If you've

been with us for a while, you know why we call the series guardrails, but if not, a guardrail, as you

already know, is a system designed to keep vehicles from straying into dangerous or off-limits area,

off-limit areas. Guard rails are never placed in the danger zone. Guardrails are always placed into what? The safety zone. Guardrails are never placed in the danger zone. Guardrails are always placed

into what? The safety zone. Guardrails are designed on the highway to do two things, primarily to

direct us and protect us. But as we've said, throughout this series, the highway is not the only place

we need guardrails in our lives. We need some financial guardrails. We need some moral guardrails.

We need relational guardrails. We need guardrails in our marriage. And specifically when we talk about a

guardrail outside the context of the highway or curves or bridges, a guardrail is actually a

personal standard of behavior that becomes a matter of conscience. So today, as we wrap up this series,

I want to talk about what I think is the most important

guardrail of all for all of us to establish.

I want to talk about how to guard your heart.

Solomon, who was considered in the ancient times to be the wisest person that ever lived,

some people still think he's the wisest person that ever lived.

He wrote about money, relationships, marriage, you know, all kinds of relationships, work, the hope and life. He wrote about everything. But in the book of Proverbs, he says essentially, hey, all that stuff I wrote about, it's really important, but there's one thing I don't want you to miss. If you forget everything else I said, if you've ever had that conversation with one of your parents, or maybe with one of your kids, if you forget everything else I said, if you ever had that conversation with one of your parents or maybe with one of your kids,

if you forget everything else I said, here's what Solomon says.

If you forget everything else I said, above all else, guard your heart.
