My Lord,

Last night while reading the bible, I read a verse of scripture in Isaiah that caused me to burst into tears.  I was going to write about it today, but I changed my mind.  I'll do that tomorrow.

While sitting in the car this morning, I was listening to today's sermon and the pastor spoke about the human heart.  It was something I could so relate to.  One being my past and all the thoughts that remained in my "heart" and my head long after I was saved.  The other being the conversations that I've had with family and friends who ask for advice or want to make changes in their lives but just can't quite take the steps in that direction.  I truly believe it's because of the human heart.  We have to get the heart aligned with the mind, body and spirit and then and only then can we begin to experience what I love to call the UNSPEAKABLE Joy and UNIMAGINABLE Peace that you so freely give to your children.

Hebrews 4:12-13
For the word of God is living and active.  Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow, it judges the thoughts and the attitudes of the heart.  Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight.  Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

My Lord, please search my heart and if there is anything hidden, help me to reveal it.  Help me to meditate on your word DAILY and digest it completely.  Help me to seek your will and the path that you want me to travel so that my life will GLORIFY your name and help others to see that your love is real and that you extend it to everyone.  But first Father, they must invite you into their hearts and into their lives.

Eternally yours
