No Room In Your Hearts
Scripture:
34”I speak eternal truth,” Jesus said. “When you sin you are not free. You’ve become a slave in bondage to your sin. 35 And slaves have no permanent standing in a family, like a son does, for a son is a part of the family forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free from sin, then become a true son and be unquestionably free! 37 Even though you are descendants of Abraham, you desire to kill me because the message I bring has not found a home in your hearts. 38 Yet the truths I speak I’ve seen and received in my Father’s presence. But you are doing what you’ve learned from your father!” (John 8:34-38 The Passion)
What is in my heart? Is there room in my heart for more of Jesus? What might crowd out all that Jesus has for me to know and learn? Jesus was clear, and even hard with, those He was talking to about what was in their hearts. Today He will be clear with me as well if I have an open heart.
Father, help to truly have an open heart; to always have room in my heart for more of You and the truths You have for me. I love You always. AMEN
Lord because of You, my best friend and my shepherd, I always have more than enough. I find my resting place in Your luxurious love. You take me to an oasis of peace and quiet brook of bliss. Psalm 23
