Heart Healthy

I admire people that can knit. You start off with yarn, and two needles and you intentionally weave them together until you make something that serves a purpose... you can make something that will keep you warm, add beauty, be decorative. As you knit the string together, it all becomes stronger than the individual piece of string.

When you think about it, that's how it is with the Word of God. The Bible is like this string that tells you who God is. When you weave that string into your life, you get something that will keep you warm, add beauty... and make you stronger.

"I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. Blessed are you o Lord; teach me your statutes." Psalm 119:11-12

The psalmist understands... if you continuously meditate on, talk about, ponder, embrace... you get the picture... if the Word of God is always on your mind, when it comes time to make a decision, you will have to actively choose... obey the word of God or not.

God truly desires for us to know who He is. If we sincerely ask Him to teach us His word, and if we meditate on it - God will honor His word and teach us.

My challenge for you is to remember Psalm 119:11-12. Meditate on it... and make it your prayer.
