Everyday The Heart

Take comfort in knowing only God knows your heart yet I know it stings when someone judges you harshly because they can’t see your heart. The human heart is arrogant, and often cares for itself above all, prone to judge others, prone to make demands of others. The heart is also needy and incomplete with holes that can only be repaired by love, by God perfect love.

Where’s the healing for it all? Jesus. He is it, His Word which is both justice and mercy. First, we must deeply understand and truly own our brokenness. 1 John 1:8 people, “If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.” When you seriously humble yourself and see your own depravity you won’t have time to judge your neighbor. Whatever righteousness we possess was given to us by the victory of Christ’s death and resurrection. Humble yourself. Receive the grace God gives and though Him you’ll be able to give grace to another fellow sinner…everyday.
