Psalm 51 The Heart of the Matter

Psalm 51:10

Create in me a pure heart O’ God

And renew a steadfast spirit within me.

Okay guys-

What comes to mind when you think of……

The heart?

Could it be the deepest, truest, inmost self-

The real person?

The center from which Life............

Or death............flows?

The place where motives-

And will -

And desire-

All come together into the perfect storm-

A powerful, mysterious force.........

That moves us?

Now, how about your own heart-

Is it good or is it bad?

Is it pure or is it wicked?

Oh, but let’s go back to an earlier question-

A question that must be answered first……………..

What have you given your heart to?

Have you presented that deepest, truest you to.........

The Christ?

The One who can bring it to Life.

Can you trust Him……….

Will you trust Him...........

With your heart?

You do know, don’t you……

That He is The Only One who can answer the Psalmist prayer-

Who can answer our own prayer………..

For a pure heart.

2 Corinthians 5:17

Behold if anyone is in Christ-

He is a new Creation-

The old has gone and

The new has come!

Thank You Jesus for the new heart

You have given me-

For the Life that can flow from

Your own Heart in me.

Amen
