A COLD HEART

“A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.”
Ezekiel 36:26 KJV

Two of the definitions I found for cold in Webster’s Dictionary are “indifferent; unconcerned”.  Before I was saved, I had a cold heart.  I didn’t care about anyone or anything.  I hated everyone because I had been abused physically and emotionally.  Jesus gave me a new heart filled with love and compassion.

One of my favorite hymns is “Since Jesus Passed By”.  I love to hear Lynda Randle sing this beautiful hymn.  When Jesus wraps His arms of compassion and love around us and tenderly whispers to us “I love you”, it makes a difference in our heart and in our life.  We have a reason for living.

Heavenly Father, what a tender loving compassionate Father You are.  Thank You for giving Jesus to die on the cross for our sins.  Jesus, how I love You.  Thank You for dying for me and for giving me a new heart.  Thank You for never leaving me, not even for a minute.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
