Hello ,

Day #6 - The Gift of a New Heart

"The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?"  Jeremiah 17:9

There is nothing that we can do about the above verse in and of ourselves....NOTHING!  We can't pull ourselves up by our own boot-straps and give it the "old college try."  We can't pretend that it doesn't exist.  We can't "straighten" ourselves out with this or that "positive mental attitude" seminar.  

We're stuck!

Unless someone comes in and changes things around FOR us, we're going to stay in the same spiritual shape that we came into the world with...selfish, wicked, and lost.  

God to the rescue!

"A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh." Ezekiel 36:26

God performs something that we cannot do for ourselves...in us.  What an amazing gift; what an amazing God.

Have a great day and God bless!

Pastor Mike / The Open Word
