The same heart by Gary Rose


Beautiful picture!!  A nice looking mom and her pup, both with the same heart on their side.  Although they aren't an exact match (puppy has the marking on its left side and mom her right) still the idea shines through, as its obvious they are related.  

Question: Could anyone tell if you have a heart like God's heart?

Paul says...

2 Corinthians, Chapter 3 (WEB)
 1 Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as do some, letters of commendation to you or from you? 2 You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men;  3 being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, served by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh. (emp. added GDR) 4 Such confidence we have through Christ toward God;  5 not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God;  6 who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant; not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.  7 But if the service of death, written engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadfastly on the face of Moses for the glory of his face; which was passing away:  8 won’t service of the Spirit be with much more glory?  9 For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.  10 For most certainly that which has been made glorious has not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasses.  11 For if that which passes away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory. 

Do you want to please God and his son Jesus? Does every day involve prayer and Bible Study? Is love a word someone would think of when asked to describe YOU? Do you want to be with God's children every opportunity you have? And probably twenty more questions would not suffice- but I think you get the idea!!!

I don't know what your heart is like, but a heart like God's should be the goal. The Bible will tell you what God is like- its up to you to be "a living letter". So, be the most elegant, God-pleasing script you can possibly be!!!
