"If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works…" Proverbs 24:11-12
The Lord knows our hearts, dear girls. He knows what motivates us and what we struggle with most. And, He absolutely knows what we try so hard to keep hidden from everyone else. Mean-spiritedness, uncharitable attitudes, and plain out selfish desires drive us often. Yet, He loves us. But, today's verse makes it very clear that The Lord Jesus is the Keeper of our souls and He ponders our hearts; He will reward us for how we serve Him, girls...whether good or bad.
I hope that when He looks upon my heart today and considers the reasons why I am doing what I'm doing that He is blessed.
