Daily Dose 8-7-12


Proverbs 20:27 The Lord’s light penetrates the human spirit, exposing every hidden motive. (NLT)
The closer we become to God, the more we give up trying to put our best face forward. The further our relationship deepens, the more our true heart and intentions are exposed. Revealing our true motives is not a “Gotcha” opportunity to God. It is His way of molding us into the version of us He intended. When God reveals an impure motive, we have options. We can deny truth and continue on our own path. We can argue with God, trying to convince Him He has misunderstood. Or, we can boldly confess it to God and ask for His power to enable us to change or hearts. When our motives are lined up to fulfill God’s will instead of our own, our end result is better than our selfish motives hoped to accomplish!
Father, Show me what You see. Allow me to know what motives are not in line with Your will. Keep my heart pure, looking for where the path leads to Your glory revealed in me. I love You! Amen
