Sharing Heart To Heart
Wednesday March 14, 2018
It is God’s desire that we walk safely and securely in the conscious awareness of His great love and care for us. In the past, we didn’t know or even care about God. The outcome of our self-willed, self-directed way of life was a chaotic lifestyle in destructive addiction. God’s ongoing invitation is that we enter into a deeply satisfying heart-to-heart relationship with Him.
How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me! (Psalm 139:17-18 NLT)
There’s no better friend and companion than God. God’s heart is always turned towards us. He pays attention to what is going on in our lives and cares about how circumstances are impacting us. He is willing to listen to us as we share with Him whatever is troubling our minds and hearts. We don’t have to wait until our thoughts are “tidied up.” God offers to be that close friend to whom we can pour out our hearts and have Him help us sort what is really going on.
God loves us for who we are, not what we do. The Bible reminds us that God gazes on us with great delight and even rejoices over us with singing. God always has our best interest at heart. He knows better than us what we need. If we seek God throughout each day, He will give us guidance and encouragement to deal with those things that concern us.
I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. (Jeremiah 31:3, 1 Peter 3:12, 1 Peter 5:7 NIV)
Today, let’s give thanks for God’s faithful love for us and enter more deeply into a heart-to-heart relationship with Him.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, My desire is to live in conscious contact with You, to know Your will, and have the power to carry it out. Please direct my steps in all I undertake to do. Amen
