My heart and my motive
I said to myself, I would make a blog entry here, every monday, to start off my week. I skipped yesterday because I was too busy and distracted with other things. Today, I felt I was running on empty and unprepared. I’m glad I’ve done my devotion this morning because God spoke to me in these two verses:
All a man’s ways seem right to him, but the LORD weighs the heart.
Test me, O LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind;
I must look at my heart and my motivation. Am I missing the “routine” of devotional blogging on mondays, or am I missing talking to God? God will speak to me at any day of the week. His message is always relevant. I have to present my heart to Him and set my motivation for God’s work. That is all He wants me to do.
Thank you, Lord, for revealing your truth to me. Examine my heart and correct my motivation. All I want is to listen to your truth and serve you. I want to give you my best. Remove any self-righteousness that may have creep out of me. Cleanse my thought so I may walk in the right direction – towards you, God. Amen.
