What is your heart…set on?
“Blessed is the man whose strength is in You,
Whose heart is set on pilgrimage.”
Psalm 84:5
Our hearts can be set upon…so many things: a new home, a job, a good education, finding the right person…a baby. So many good and wonderful things. Nevertheless…we need our hearts to be set on the One and Only…first.
The author of this passage knows that having our hearts set on God…is a journey, not a one-time event. Trusting Jesus is a process of one step in front of the other…every minute of every day. A pilgrimage…a continual…looking up…lifting and setting our eyes and heart on Him alone. And…
As the next verse will tell us, when we travel through the Valley of Baca, the valley of barrenness or weeping, we will find springs of living water, the rain and reign of the Holy Spirit creating pools of refreshment. We will journey from strength…to strength. What promises!
So what is your heart set on…make it only Him.
* Remember! Should a post ever touch your heart in a special way by the Lord, be sure to share someone else might be encouraged or challenged by Him! Love to all...I am back from vacation!
