"HEART!"

Ezekiel 36:26-27                  (ESV)
"26 And I will give you a new "HEART", and a new SPIRIT I will put within you. And I will remove the "HEART" of stone from your flesh and give you a "HEART" of flesh.
27 And I will put MY SPIRIT within you, and cause you to walk in MY statutes and be careful to obey MY rules."




Why do people, especially me, choose to use language that demonstrates our vast knowledge of the English language, and try to maybe impress someone with our words, when GOD is the only ONE WHO can change a "HEART"?   A mind can be changed with words, but a "HEART" can only be changed by GOD.   People need GOD to change their "HEART", not elaborate words that show how smart we think we are.  

Think about this the next time you spend a lot of time trying to find the right words to say for a certain situation.  GOD doesn't need us, or our preacher to say the flowery words, or just the right music selection of a choir, or the beauty of our church house for HIM to act.  GOD needs us to realize and proclaim that HE is the ONLY ONE WHO can remove a "HEART" of stone and replace it with a new "HEART"!!!
