" . . . For the LORD searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. . . . "
How hard is it for you to be honest with God? Do you ever consider that it is very good to be candid with yourself (and God)--and to express yourself with complete openness to Him? After all: the Lord knows our hearts, and our motivations--therefore, He loves to hear honest, heartfelt prayers.
It is better to blurt out two words that come from the heart, than to speak a thousand words of meaningless repetition. Let us give God our best--and may it be from hearts that love Him, because of His initial love to us (in Jesus).
[Puritan quote of the day: "The depth of affliction is to save us from the depth of damnation." --Thomas Watson, in "All Things for Good"]
