Heart Matters

Heart Matters

A willing heart—David


Acts 13:22 


After removing Saul, he made David their king. He testified concerning him: ‘I have found David son of Jesse a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.’


A trusting heart—Mary


Luke 1:38 


“I am the Lord's servant,” Mary answered. “May it be to me as you have said.” Then the angel left her.


A rejoicing heart—Miriam


Exodus 15:20-21 


20 Then Miriam the prophetess, Aaron's sister, took a tambourine in her hand, and all the women followed her, with tambourines and dancing. 


21 Miriam sang to them: “Sing to the LORD, for he is highly exalted. The horse and its rider he has hurled into the sea.”


A beautiful heart—Sarah


1 Peter 3:4-6 


4 Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. 


5 For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to make themselves beautiful. They were submissive to their own husbands, 


6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her master. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.


A surrendered heart—Ruth


Ruth 1:16-17 


16 But Ruth replied, “Don't urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. 


17 Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the LORD deal with me, be it ever so severely, if anything but death separates you and me.”


A faithful heart—Lois and Eunice


2 Timothy 1:5 


I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.
