the You Version reading plan that
... "Sometimes I feel no one's ever been in this place before This is hard and I'm not sure that I can do this anymore I know some day I"ll look back, and all this won't seem real But Lord right now I need you to know just how I feel Chorus: When there are no words to say and no prayer that I can pray hear my heart,When I don't have strength to try and I've cried all I can cry hear my heart Cause you know every fear and every doubt I cannot speak You know all the ways I need you and all the ways I'm weak So I'll be quiet so you can hear my heart. Verse 2: Every now and then I recall a simple phrase or melody It comforts and it quiets, lifts me up and then it carries me Far above the pain and hurt I think will never end The song speaks words I cannot and it calms the fears within Chorus: When there are no words to say and no prayer that I can pray hear my heart When I don't have strength to try and I've cried all I can cry hear my heart Cause you know every fear and every doubt I cannot speak You know all the ways I need you and all the ways I'm weak So I'll be quiet so you can hear my heart. Lord I'll be quiet so you can hear my heart ❤️ |
because I am working on my heart
and since I attended a recent livestream event (my 1st live one)I've returned to a place and a ministry that I enjoyed while in MX
"REVIVE OUR HEARTS"
with
Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth
so, of course, "reviving my heart" means listening for God's heart and being restored; because I so want to reflect better the beauty and heart of Christ to my world (those around me) which is only possible through His Grace ... this I truly know.
As I take my "Walk On Weds." and "Worship On Weds.", press into hear His gentle "Whisper On Weds." as I go to His "Word On Weds.", I can't help but realize that God wants to prepare my heart ... be concerned with my spiritual heart condition, besides my physical heart (with aging and high blood pressure) ... since we all share a family history of "heart disease" (sin). Calling upon the Great Physician to cure/heal our deceived, diseased hearts - in need of Jesus doing a radical heart surgery - to cleanse and transform me. I need some serious "heart" work to function properly, remove blockage, and deal with this heart condition, which starts, as you know with admitting we need some help, work, or whatever, and allow our hearts to be searched as we place our hearts in the hands of the Master's touch.
How can I expect to hear His heart, His Whisper, if there's blockage? If I continue in the lies or believing the lies, I'm not listening to His Truth and speaking His Truth over me and every situation I encounter. I truly want to walk with Him and hear His Whisper, believe what I say I believe in my heart and stop any thoughts to the contrary.
"We come closer to God and approach Him with an open heart, fully convinced by faith that nothing will keep us at a distance from Him. For our hearts have been sprinkled with blood to remove impurity and we have been freed from an accusing conscience and now we are clean, unstained, and presentable to God inside and out!" Hebrews 10:22, The Passion Translation |
