Learning To Listen to God
Do you pay attention to your heart? I’m not talking about the physical condition of your heart but the spiritual condition. After David came face to face with the sin in his own heart, he cried out to God because he knew he was unable to clean his own heart. He realized the spiritual condition of a man’s heart can only be fixed by God alone.
We are powerless to change the nature of our own hearts. If we choose, like David, to ask God to address the condition of our hearts, we need to be prepared for what God’s response might require of us. He may ask us to part with a piece of ourselves we feel intimately connected to. He may ask us to apologize or confess sin.
