A New Heart

What is the condition of your heart toward God and others? Is your heart hard and calloused or soft and receptive?
God desires for us to have a receptive heart and spirit. God wants to give us a new heart to love him and to be receptive to his will.
God spoke through the Prophet Ezekiel saying, “I will give you a new 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.” (Ezekiel 36:26, ESV).
God will remove our hardness of heart. God will give us the heart and spirit we need to love him well. God will put his heart within us. God will put his spirit within us.
May we receive the heart and spirit of God as we love God and do his will.
A Collect for the Renewal of Life: “O God, the King eternal, whose light divides the day from the night and turns the shadow of death into the morning: Drive far from us all wrong desires, incline our hearts to keep your law, and guide our feet into the way of peace; that, having done your will with cheerfulness during the day, we may, when night comes, rejoice to give you thanks; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
