Continued from page 1
God created us to have needs (not counting them as sinful or selfish). Without them, we would have no way of knowing our need for God or how much He loves us.
When we hurt, God hurts; as any loving parent would. Taking residence in
Christian heart, when our spirit is wounded
Spirit is wounded. Your heart can not be touched without it touching
heart of God!
Any time our heart is pure (I Jn. 3:21) and feels pulled, grabbed, tugged, or touched from within; God has placed it there. That is God and His desire, also. Keeping our heart in tune allows us to 'know' His perfect will, in all things (as
Spirit beareth witness and is truth, I Jn. 5:6); giving confidence to believe, receive, stand, take steps of faith, walk away, and trust God to meet
need (each according to His divine instruction).
God is for YOU (Ez. 36:9), forever caring in matters of
heart (Pr. 4:23).
