Where Is Your Heart?

Psalm 19 is a wonderful passage of Scripture to read and meditate upon. Verses 7-9 teach us: “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes; the fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgements of the Lord are true and righteous altogether” (NKJV; Thomas Nelson Publishing, 1982).

Dear friend, where is your heart? Does reading and meditating on God’s word cause your heart to rejoice? Does studying the Word cause you to examine yourself and make necessary corrections if needed? Do you have reverence for the almighty God? Are you willing to humbly submit to Him?

Only you and God know the answers to these questions! Approximately 180 million Americans are unchurched. Twenty-five percent of Americans, 82 million, are Nones (no religious affiliation). Eight percent of the US population are agnostics or atheists (26 million). The Nones , agnostics, and atheists are included in the 180 million total (The Unchurched Next Door, Thom Rainer; Wikipedia: Irreligion in the United States).

Fewer people are reading and believing the Word of God! Many consider daily Bible reading a chore and something to dread. Bible literacy in America continues to fall at an alarming rate. Do you consider reading the Bible a dreaded task? Do you understand what you are reading? Are you looking for answers? Where is your heart?

Consider the final verse from Psalm 19: “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer” (NKJV). Where is your heart dear friend?
