The Heart
It pumps life throughout our bodies
Without it we cannot live
When it ceases to pump, we cease to be on earth
And yet, it is deceitful and wicked
according to Jeremiah 17:9-10
It is dark Romans 1:21
It produces evil thoughts Mark 17:21
It is evil Genesis 6:5
It grieves the Lord Genesis 6:6
It leads us away from God Hebrews 3:12
And so, what help do we have in God if our hearts are so evil?
We can pray the same prayer that David of the Bible prayed
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Psalm 51:10-12
Jesus paid the price for our redemption. That is the hope we can claim to go from a wicked heart to a heart that honors Him!
Thanks for coming by today, Friends. I apologize for not being here yesterday.
Have a blessed day!
