Today I read Psalm 86, which reminded me to come to God with everything (v. 5, 7). I don't know how or why I forget that. I also didn't realize how much I have lost my deep desire for my Lord, like that OH I LOVE YOU PRAISE YOU I'M JUST GOING TO SING TO YOU AND SHOUT FROM THE ROOFTOPS ALL DAY desire for Him. That love relationship.
v. 11-12 says:
Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your name. I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart.
We can't be half-hearted and wrapped up in self, we must use ALL that the Lord has given us to enjoy an ongoing relationship with Him, daily. We can't just do what we want, watch what we want, listen to what we want and think it doesn't effect our walk. Everything we are engaged in effects our walk with the Lord. So we need to have our whole heart with Him. Like when we first fell in love with our mates. That deep desire.
Interesting that this is my first post! O_O But it completely works because that is what I will be writing about in terms of music that's out there, movies, any media really. Any topic that the Lord lays on my heart I will be discussing here in terms of Purity of our Hearts as Christians.
