Matthew 5:8 -    ‘ Blessed are the Pure in Heart, for they shall see God.”

PURE- free from sin or guilt, faultless, blameless, holy

 

A LADY’S HEART

 

There came to me a broken heart

Assuming God had abandoned her there.

Poverty of circumstance had weighed her down

She concluded that God did not hear or care.

 

There grew in her a searching heart.

She was learning to stop and pray.

She was watching to see how God works.

As her preconceived notions slipped away.

 

There festered in her a convicted heart.

Her sins were too dreadful to speak.

Jesus said, “ I died to forgive

I paid the price for those who seek.”

 

There came to her a hopeful heart.

Forgiveness through His blood met her there.

Jesus did what He said He would do.

She was cleansed by her whispered prayer.

 

There blossomed in her a tenderized heart.

Knowing that God would meet her need.

She opened her heart to let Him in

Obeying His Word planted seed.

 

There came unto her a thankful heart. All that He promised was coming to be

God had been waiting to reveal Himself. Obedience and faith are still the keys.

 

There grew in her a peaceful heart. Rejoicing was etched on her face.

God had met her and saved her soul. His Presence now sets the pace.

 

 

 

Planted in her is a transparent heart. Her journey was well worth the trip.

Joyfully in love with Jesus today, she knows He is the One who equips!
