Daily Lift – March 21st, 2018

O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever (Deuteronomy 5:29).

Many things are touted as being “heart
healthy.” Foods, vitamins, and activities
are promoted as being good for the heart
and thus good for the overall well-being of
humanity. There is no doubt that bodily
exercise is of some profit (1 Timothy 4:8).

There is also the need for healthy spiritual
hearts. Such an heart is characterized as one
with a deep reverence for God (“fear”) and one
that keeps God’s commands habitually. That
kind of spiritual heart is not only good for us,
but also good for our children. No wonder
we are admonished to diligently guard our
hearts (Proverbs 4:23).
