I can’t make this place all that You can
“Welcome to this heart of mine I’ve buried under prideful vines
Grown to hide the mess I’ve made inside of me
Come decorate, Lord open up the creaking door
And walk upon the dusty floor scrape away the guilty stains
Until no sin or shame remain spread Your love upon the walls
And occupy the empty halls until the man I am has faded
No more doors are barricaded” (Shaun Groves – Welcome Home)
Often times I find myself getting caught up in so many things in life. At times I am too easily distracted and lose focus on what really matters. I end up filling up my heart and investing my time in so many secular things, keeping God from entering. At times I have a tendency to look everywhere and turn to everyone else to satisfy but God. I just want to remind everyone that wherever they are in their walk with God, just remember that God never ceases to provide and will strengthen the hearts that are open to him. Don’t let your heart become stained with sin and shame when there is so much love that is offered by God.
“For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him” 2 Chronicles 16:9
