A Hearty Reminder

We forget the hearts.
We forget they are not made of steel.

We forget they are like clay, able to be molded.
We forget that they are like paper, able to be ripped.

We do as we please, and walk away from the consequences.
We don't remember His promise.

"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." -Psalm 147:3
God does not forget the hearts.

He binds up wounds. Bind this reminder to your hearts. 

Jealous Love

God doesn't want your religion.

He doesn't want your fake and selfish prayers;
He doesn't want your acts of righteousness.

He doesn't ask for your strength
He doesn't come hunting your abilities.

God doesn't care how many Bible studies you lead
Or how many committees you are part of

You can attend church,
You can talk about theology,

You can claim to have accepted Christ...
But if your heart isn't in it

He doesn't want any part of it.

God doesn't want your religion.
He wants your heart.

He is JEALOUS for you.
Did you know that?

Stop spending your time on things that mean nothing
And spend yourself living for God.

He wants your heart.
Don't hold back.

"Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm;
for love is as strong as death, it's jealousy unyielding as the grave.
It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame."
-Song of Songs 8:6
