WOYWW: Made for Heaven

 

  What's on My WorkDesk Wednesday?

Today this is how my desk looks like

after I did my painting.

I completely forgot to take a before photo.

Anyway you can see my fan

(it is so hot here in the Philippines that 

I like having the wind blow directly on me!),

a jar of gel medium, not so dirty water

(it was sooo disgusting I just had to clean it up!),

my mini blue garbage can with a box

of tissue paper inside

(to clean up my brushes).

 

And here are postcards I sent off by mail

yesterday.

 I read from Mark 7:20-23 that

"what comes out of a man,

that is what defiles him.

From within the man, from his heart,

come evil thoughts, unchastity,

theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice,

deceit, licentiousness, envy,

blasphemy, arrogance, folly.

All these evils come from within

and they defile."

 "Search me O God and know my heart,

Try me and know my thoughts."

This is David's prayer in Psalm 139.

David really desired that God would show him

if there was any wickedness in him.

And there was!!!!

There is evil and sin in saints

and any one of us.

But are we willing to let God in and

for Him to transform our hearts?

Are we willing to let God change us

so we can become the best we can be?

 

"My soul yearns and pines for the courts of The Lord." 

Psalm 84:3 

"You stir man to take pleasure in praising you, 

because you have made us for yourself, 

and our heart is restless until it rests in you." 

St. Augustine. 

 

Why do we fear death? 

Should not we yearn to be united 

to the One who loves us best?

Maybe one reason is 

we know that our hearts don't belong in heaven?

Because there is so much there that needs

overhauling!

But one thing we should remember is

we were MADE FOR HEAVEN

And God will do everything

to bring us home!
