Staying Developed and enveloped in the Love of God is a daily work in progress. My morning reading was about the 4 soils/hearts of man; I could only reflect on how many times I had been all four soils and many times in my life not really knowing when I transferred from the rocks unto the shallow soil, because we have a funny way of thinking something is wrong with everything around us and many times, The probelm is us.But the most interesting thought is that I always know when I was good ground,not because I was so wonderful,it is when each time I choose to say Lord I am nothing I can do nothing and I need to look like you so search my heart.God begins preparing me to look at the truth of God's word, wheter the word is speaking correction, instruction in righteousness or reproof or doctrine,and God allows the word of God to comes face to face with me. I then make the deceison, saying Lord look at my heart and purify mind body and spirite and soul; leave no soil unturned in my life. until every old root, and rocks and whatever, that does not reflect you is removed out of my life,I ask that our relationship be one of Father and Daughter, that you remind me everytime I am in the transfer from shallow to rocky and so forth. I will then open my mouth and request one thing of you: so that I may experience the fullness of you in this life not just the life of heaven to come, but having a God experience each day of my life.
I begin my day with this confession: Lord Purify My Heart, I only want what you want and I only want to do what you what me to do, no more and no less.
The close of the day scripture for me was Psalm 24:3,4
Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who shall stand in His holy place?
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity nor sworn deceitfully.
Pure hearts are able to stand in the presence of a Holy God without vanity of deceit-that is my spiritual goal for 2009 What about you?
Didn't expect that to happen...
