Guarding My Heart
It’s so easy to stray from the Lord. This world facilitates the way to hell. People tend to sin, and most of the time, they want to take me with them!
In dark times like this is when I really need to guard my heart. Only Jesus can give me that peace of mind (Philippians 4:7). Only God can protect me from the dangers that my dark heart desires. I need the Lord to cleanse my heart and let Him be the ruler of my life (1 Peter 3:15).
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
Philippians 4:8
Lord, I give thanks to you. I lift my praise to you. In my time of trouble, in my time of darkness, in my time of sin – I want you to get me out of there! Help me, God. I can’t do this on my own. Cleanse me. Fill me with your spirit. Make me be right again in your eyes. Give me the strength to go on. Amen.
