IN OUR HEARTS!

 

IN OUR HEARTS

 

Today we read about David=

Wanting to BUILD

A HOUSE for the Lord

A very worthy one

 

WE too

Should build a HOUSE/a HOME

For the Lord

IN OUR HEARTS

In our very own hearts

For the Lord our God

And Jesus

 

“I will

Give my eyes no sleep-

My eyelids no rest

 

Till I FIND A HOME

For the Lord

A dwelling=for the Mighty One of Jacob”                                                                                 Psalm 132:4-5

 

We are put

INTO the world

To build a house

For the Holy One

 

We are INVITED

To MAKE A HOME

For God=in our own HEARTS

IN OUR HEARTS

 

HOW is your house coming?

Are you building a

HOUSE OF LOVE

For the LOVING GOD?

 

Are you building a house

For loving others?

Loving God=loving others

Building it

INSIDE OUR OWN HEARTS

 

“Go and tell my servant David

The Lord says=

‘You shall BUILD me

A HOUSE

For me to dwell in’”                                                                                                         2 Samuel 7:5

 

“Heaven is my throne

And earth=is my footstool

 

What HOUSE will you BUILD ME?

Says the Lord

 

Or what is the place

Of my rest?”                                                                                                                Acts 7:49

 

David’s QUEST to build

A house=for the Lord

Is the overriding TASK

Of his life

 

To CREATE A HOME

For the Lord

 

And this should be

As IN TENSE for us=we should

Build a HOME

For the Lord=in our inner soul

IN OUR HEARTS!

 

“For you will

Not leave my SOUL in hell

 

Neither will you suffer

Your Holy One=to see corruption”                                                                                         Psalm 16:10

 

Dear Lord=we pray

LIKE DAVID

 

Help us to BUILD

A HOME for you=a home for you

IN OUR HEARTS

In our very own hearts

For you TO LIVE

 

COME and abide in me

And BUILD YOUR HOME!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER=living-loving God=

Living INSIDE our own HEARTS!
