JUST PONDERING!

I sit looking out my window;

I have Bing Crosby singing Christmas songs,

parties.Oh, what a wonderful season,

The wonderful Christmas season.

This season we see more smiles,

We hear more laughter and have more parties.

As I look at the world today,

Christmas has lost it’s true meaning;

The meaning about God’s love,

love for a lost world.

He gave joy, peace and love

for the people of this earth

by sending His only begotten SON

to be born as a baby in a manger.

So let’s say Merry Christmas,

to those we meet, and a smile,

special smile to those we greet.

Thank You Heavenly Father,

for sending a Savior to reconcile,

reconcile us to God!

The Heart!

“The Heart”

The Heart is a many splendor thing and God looks upon the heart! In the previous post we looked at how God treats the heart; we are going to continue that in this post. 1 Chronicles 29:18O LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee: Psalm 16:1Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust. God prepares the heart, as a farmer prepares his fields for the seed to be planted and grow. We read in Acts 16:14And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul. Here God opens the heart to receive good news and we can share this with others to bless them. 2 Cor. 4:6For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Eph. 1:18The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, God opens our hearts so we can be enlightened to His teachings. Psalms27:14Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. God wants us to wait upon Him and listen to Him so He can strengthen the heart. Psalms 112:8His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies. 1 Thess. 3:13To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints. God makes the heart stable and steadfast when we place our hearts in His hands.

  THE HEART

Proverbs 4:²³Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

God tells us that the issues of life come from the heart, the center and life of our being.

GOD’S  RELATIONSHIP WITH THE HEART

1/ 1 Chron. 29:¹⁷I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of mine heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to offer willingly unto thee.

Jer. 12:³But thou, O LORD, knowest me: thou hast seen me, and tried mine heart toward thee: pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.

God tries and tests our heart.

2/Psalm 44:²¹Shall not God search this out? for…
