TODAY’S WORD…

.

God does not see as man sees;

man looks at appearances

but the Lord looks at the heart.

.

– 1 Samuel 16:7 (JB)

REFLECTION…

.

We truly need to look closer at ourselves.

…..

Am I really what I project myself to be?

Am I aware of my own weaknesses; my bad habits…?

…..

Okay, so people seem to react very positively towards me

and they are friendly and even respectful,

but would they do the same

if they knew what I was truly like inside?

…..

Have I reached a stage where I believe my own lies;

where I am even fooling myself?

…..

That’s why I need to call upon Jesus and invite Him in,

right in to the depths of my being.

…..

He already knows what He will find there,

but if I humbly call Him in, He will help me go through every corner of my heart,

even those places which I had arrogantly and consciously shut out of my mind

…and the Lord will give me a clean heart

and He will renew me and make me more like Him!

REPETITIVE PRAYER FOR TODAY…

.

Jesus, Son of the Living God, Name above all names,

beautiful Saviour, Glorious Lord,

come and probe, and clean, and heal this heart that eagerly awaits You.
