Heart Hardening or Heart Heartening

His devotion to religion distorted his understanding of God and hardened his heart. ~ Jo Helen Cox
Religion. A system of faith.
A set of connected things
or parts forming a complex whole,
that whole being doctrine, discipline,
theology, practices, customs, tradition.
Spirit. The nonphysical part of a person,
the seat of emotions and character.
The soul. Not the faith of my father
nor of my mother although I may have
received it through their guidance,
a gift of great value passed on,
a living breathing bequest,
the greatest inheritance.
A god of my understanding.
Something, someone, some being,
some unfathomable entity
that makes sense to me,
that relates to me,that I can surrender to
each day, every day,
one day at a time.
