Man looks at the outward appearance and God looks at the heart.
The real problem is who you are not what you face.
- What comes out when we get squeezed and crushed
This came out of some old notes of mine and it really got me thinking.....
What is in my heart? Does God have my heart completely? Am I holding anything back from God?
Well I know I would love to answer that God has my heart completely and I am not holding anything from Him. I would love to say that when I am squeezed and crushed God will flow out of me, but I can't say those things. And it is very hard for me to admit that.
I want be able to serve God with everything that is inside of me. I want to have a pure heart. That means giving up everything that is not pleasing to Him. My question is how do you give up something that you have held onto as long as you can remember? The only answer I know to that is......GOD!
I want to be able go the distance and do the things God has called me to do. I know that means I am going be tested and tested and tested because I will not walk in those things until God knows I am ready. So i want to get that point to whene I am squeezed and crushed, the only thing left to come out of me will be God's Holy Spirit. I don't want even one corner or crack to be filled with something other than Him. I know God is getting ready now. That is why..... I WILL NOT GIVE UP!
Empty me God! I want more of you and less of me.
Holy Fire burn away my desire of anything that is not of you and is of me! FILL ME WITH YOU!
What is in your heart?
