"God is Greater than Our Hearts" 5-24-09

Good morning, Lord Jesus. I love You, Lord; and I thank You for loving me. ... "Little children, let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action. And by this we will know that we are from the truth and will reassure our hearts before Him whenever our hearts condemn us; for God is greater than our hearts, and He knows everything" (1 John 3:18-20). Lord, You know everything. And you know everything about my wounded heart. You know everything about why I feel wounded or weary, condemned or judged, abandoned or forsaken. You know everything I have done and left undone, everything that been done or left undone for me. But You are greater than my heart, and You are the healer of wounded hearts. Sometimes I just need to hear Your words of truth and life to reassure my heart Sometimes I just need to feel Your firm embrace and steady assurance that You are with me as I journey through it, whatever it may be or become (Mark 10:16). And I pray the same for all whose lives have touched my journey or mine has touched theirs. Even now, Your steadfast love and Your abiding presence continually remind me that You have Your way of redeeming all things, if we will just entrust them to You. You are always "near to the brokenhearted" (Psalm 34:18). You are the faithful God who never leaves us or forsakes us, who "heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds" (Psalm 147:3). And I so I do entrust my heart to You -- this day and every day, step by step, morning by morning, all along the way. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen. Be encouraged today!
