A Tender Heart

I just want to do the right thing. And what would that be? I’m not perfect and I don’t have all the answers, but I know that I should have a tender heart toward God. I know I should  live as close to Him as best I can.

When He speaks---either in His Word or in His still, small voice, I know I should listen and obey anything He says. When I refuse to listen and obey Him my heart becomes callused.

Scar tissue is callus--- insensitive to feeling. When a heart becomes callused it loses its sensitivity to the Lord. I hope I  never reach the place where I lose  compassion for those who need the Lord, for those hurting and need prayer.

Psalm 139:23-24 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:  And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
