Saturday Morning Reflection "Create In me A Clean Heart". Psalm 51..



                                       https://abide.co/prayer/gwnvz5

I'm lying here wide awake at 4:24...James woke me up at 2:00 with a link to a podcast he was watching.and we were texting for a bit then he just stop at 3:08. Now I can't get back to sleep 

What's the lesson ?????

Usually when James does this he doesn't really pay attention to the texts I send. He just wants to get out of his head what he is thinking about when he watching something about his addiction to cocaine. It's usually always one-sided !!!!!!!

It just came to me there James is reflecting to me  how I am with God. God is trying to guide me but my emotions and thoughts are all about ME!!!!!! IAM not really listening to God 
So God is showing me once again with James that the heart is the most deceitful of all things. And we need to change 

Jeremiah 17:9-10 (NLT)
9 “The human heart is the most deceitful of all things,
    and desperately wicked.
    Who really knows how bad it is?
10 But I, the Lord, search all hearts
    and examine secret motives.
I give all people their due rewards,
    according to what their actions deserve.”

Listening to a song by Shane and Shane about psalm 51.





 It's funny I prayed to God yesterday for this,  maybe that's why I'm still awake!!!!


My alarm went off at 6am, and its always the same you cant sleep but when its time for the alarm to go off you feel tired. But I take my tablets at this time and always listen to my Abide Meditation. 

In the meditation the tittle was A Change Of Heart....And the Scripture was Ezekiel 36:26  "I will give you anew 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." In the meditation it also had Psalm 51 : 8,10,11....

Vs 8:  Oh, give me back my joy again; you have broken me - now let me rejoice.
Vs 10: Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me.
Vs 11: Do not banish me from your presence, and don’t take your Holy Spirit from me.


So I do believe God wants me to change my heart so I can help others like when I was in the A.A . I felt so happy when I was in a group helping others . But my heart was harden with some people but I do want to be more like Jesus so I need God to change my heart 

When I was reading my Bible and highlighting  Psalm 51:10-11,  I also highlighted verses Vs12,13 because I do want my Joy to return and to help others back to you Lord. But the glory goes to you because I cant do this by myself 


Vs12 :Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
Vs 13:Then I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will turn back to you.
