The heart that matters

I believe God graced our lives once in a while to remind us that He loved us and He missed us because it has been some time He heard from us.

You may asked how could God be missing me when I attended services every Sunday.

Worshipping God is a matter of the heart. When the heart is passionately pursuing the Creator, it ain't matter anymore about church attendance on Sundays. The Father is please with those children who are after His heart and His will.

The following verse was mentioned twice in the Bible and it must be an important reminder. The prophet Isaiah first mentioned it in the Book of Isaiah 29:13 and then our Saviour mentioned it again in the Gospels as in Matthew 15:8, these people honor me with their lips but their hearts are far from me.

For truly when you set the heart right, everything will fall gracefully in place. When our hearts are aligned with that of our heavenly Fathers', our earthly and spiritual lives will not show signs of any faltering.

We should spent time as often as possible to examine the status of our heart. Are they healthy by God's standard? Is the Holy Spirit in control? Are we living our earthly lives approvingly of God? Constant examination is necessary because an oversight may be too costly.

Live in the truth; Live in God's truth. Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit gifted to help you. Be obedient to His teachings and guidance. Do not be deceived that when all is well, all is really well! Always reconfirm! Do not offer your heart to be the Devil's playground. Surrender your heart to Jesus and make Him the sole tenant of your heart, His dwelling place. When the One who is greater than the one who is in the world is in total control, who can be against you? Let the True Light of God suffused your whole being.

Return the heart that was once lost to the Creator, the Owner. Pray that it is in His will to find your lost heart and also the hearts of love ones. If the heart is too stubborn, break it down with the power of His grace. No stubborn hearts can withstand the power of God's grace.

Stretch out your hands towards Jesus and cling on to Him. Don't let go.

Is Jesus in total control of you now? Why not give Him a mandate this very second? Don't hesitate!

Reign in me Lord! Let me experience the wealth of your riches. Make my heart wholesome in your holiness. Cause my heart beat to synchronise with yours.

Grow in me a desire to be transform from Adam to Christ, from death to life, from sin to holiness, from a son of man to be the son of the Living God.

Thank you Jesus! Thank you for the cross!
