God I come before you asking you that my thoughts would not be clouded by my opinion, but that you would reveal to me what your Heart is and what you would want me to say. Help me O my Lord be with me and guide me let me hear your voice let me know you. Let me only bring honor to you!
I went to go see Mark yesterday during his therapy. I was there when they did speech therapy. Mark is improving so fast that the therapist can not believe it. With some help he knows his name and address and family names. He can write all of this on his own using a pen and paper. Mark is doing about second grade work drawing lines from names of meanings to words. They ask him if he could just circle the words to the meanings but he said he could draw lines to them. This is very big because there is alot more confusion with the lines going through one another. He did this almost perfectly. The speech therapist left and I got to visit with Mark . One thing he told me was "MELYNDA DONT LOSE OUR THOUGHTS". This hit my heart because I have been really busy the last few days and I have not been able to put every thing down on this blog that the Lord has been laying on my heart. Early this morning I was worried I might forget something important I wrote down somewhere or forget something of real significance. I also lost Cathy Simpson (she went to Phoenix AZ her Dad Bob is doing better) she has been a really big help to me she has been dictating alot of what you have been reading for me on this blog. (But Jennifer has expressed she will be willing to help when ever I need her)
Mark was to tired from the day before because he took 75 steps with a walker (this goes under his arms. It is shaped like a horseshoe and it supports his weight) he is showing great improvement every day. In some way or another.
We where talking to Mark the other night and Lilly, Sunnie and I where saying to him how he had a good heart and he look at us and he said "NO I DON'T." We told him yes you do and he said again NO I Don't." Mark knows the condition of his own heart. He knows without Gods covering we are not worthy to go before your throne. We are not worthy to go before you Lord. When you said we would have to be reborn you meant the condition of our heart. Only you can purify the heart. Our heart is no good without you. Mark knows that only through the grace of God that we are good. God brings about change to our hearts when we are connected to him. We see things in his light. We are not clouded by the darkness of this world.
I was watching a T.V. program last night with the family and it was about how powerful a certain type of gun and bullet was . They were using a bullet proof vest and a gel substance behind it and they were demonstrating how certain guns and bullets would penetrate the bullet proof vest. The first gun and bullet hit the vest and there was a impact you could see it when they showed it in slow motion. The bullet caused the jell substance to definitely move but there was no penetration to the vest. The second gun and bullet shot to the vest caused the bullet to go through the bullet proof vest and you could see the bullet penetrate to the middle of the jell like substance. If that jell like substance would have been a HEART that bullet would be fatal. God has intended in his word the Bible to show us our sin and show us the consciences of our sin and it is death. Gods word should penetrate our heart. So that we can be reborn unto him. God has provided a way back to Him. He has made a way for us to be restored to him. We have to see that sin separates us from a Holy God and that because God is Holy he can not be in the presence of sin. Our hearts have to reborn. The heart has to die itself and only then can God restore it. Because he give us a heart that is a new one that sees more clearly. One that knows when it has sinned against God because when it does it is convicted. Our hearts will tell us when we have wronged someone or when we have sinned against someone or when we have sinned against ourselves and when we have sinned against God. And when we have a relationship with God he will let us know. He will speak into our inner most being. He will convict our hearts when we see sin for what it truly is and how it separates us from God.
God allows us to see through to his Heart . God allows us to see through his eyes . God allows us to see our sin so that we might become more connected to him and so sin will not separate us from him any longer. God freely gave his son so that we might be able to come before his throne and be his children and be truly loved by him. Thank you for your precious sacrifice, the gift of salvation (eternity with you). For all who would believe in him Jesus Christ our Savior and Lord will be saved. I know that I am yours.
O God you have brought back to life this dead heart. O God you have breathed new life to this dead soul, out of love for me. And you will do this for all of mankind. Any one that calls on your name Lord Jesus Christ and has seen what you have done for them. Let them see your love for them. Let them see you your sacrifice was done out of love so that we could have a relationship with you. So we could Know You O great mighty wonderful counselor merciful Gracious Redeemer Savior and Lord creator of thee heavens earth and universe.
