A CHANGE OF HEART OR A CHANGE OF CLOTHES!

Which do you think God is pleased with? Which do you think will get you into heaven? Which one do you spend the most time on?
 Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart." (1 Samuel 16:7) He will walk right pass the person in the bad suit to get to the pure heart. Something for us to think about.

God is concerned about our hearts being clean. Psalms 51:10 say, create in me a clean heart O God and renew a right spirit within me.  Church folk are concerned about that clean outfit they are wearing Sunday. Got to get my weave done, my manicure and pedicure done, my shoes have got to match my outfit. Don’t get me wrong, there is no sin in doing these things. But how much did you get into the word of God for that ugly way you treated your sister, brother. How much did you meditate on the word to move it by Ephesians 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
. If we spend as much time on our spiritual man as we do the natural man, I wonder, what kind of a difference would be made in our lives. By talking to God about our issues and our sins, we are confessing to Him that we have gone astray. When we repent of our sin, we turn from it and seek to go God’s way.
.As forgiven children of God, we are free to set our heart and mind on things that are pure and pleasing to God. We seek to fill our minds with God's Word and God's will so that there is no room in our heart for sinful thoughts and desires to take over and set up shop.
Without the sincere motive to be walking on the Lord's straight path, we will experience much unrest and a continual longing for things which are outside of God's will.
PRAYER: Lord it is my desire to be a person after your heart, In Jesus name, Amen.
