Behold,
you delight in truth
in the inward being,
and you teach me
wisdom
in the secret heart.
Psalms 51:6 ESV
Truth & wisdom at our very core.
It's hard enough to get to our heart, the secret heart.
There's so much noise, distraction, pressure to "do", achieve...become
The psalmist is sharing God's heart for us here...He wants wisdom at our core. Wisdom will help us make decisions, choices, behave, react, respond.
Wisdom from the heart of God, in our hearts.
And truth.
Often there seems to be a mix.
Truth
And things that are not quite truth.
Sometimes we call those lies
Those words that pop into our minds that tell us about God and ourselves, but they don't quite line up with what God has revealed about himself, or just how much he loves us.
Chosen
Accepted
Forgiven
Adopted
Loved
In those truths there is room to get it wrong, to make mistakes, to not be perfect
There is room to grow
To be changed
Love does that
When you let God's love flood in to your core,
your secret heart.
Give Him room today

Joseph replied..."Dont you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now - life for many people..." Genesis 50:19-20 MSG The view from the drone. The different perspective. "God has been at work in my life despite, in fact within the hatred that you had towards me. Even though I couldn't always see it, I kept trusting Him, even when He was silent, when all hope seemed lost... God was at work... Can you see that now?" #faith #faithinthedark
Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
Psalm 42.1-11.nlt As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God... I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him? O God my rock l cry, Why have you forgotten me? Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies? Their taunts break my bones. They scoff, Where is this God of yours? Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again - my Savior and my God! That song "as the deer pants for the water..." seems almost nice, but it's not...it's part of a cry of anguish, of hurt, of despair...of God not giving an answer...yet...through all that...again and again he says I'll put my hope in God! #choose #hope #hopeunshaken
