Move Forward with a Clear Mind and Light Heart

Psalm 27:8 (NLT)  My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “LORD, I am coming.”

Psalm 51:2 (NLT)  Wash me clean from my guilt. Purify me from my sin.

Proverbs 4:23-27 (NLT)  Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. Avoid all perverse talk; stay away from corrupt speech. Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don’t get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.

            This week we have embraced what truly matters and discovered that kindness matters. We have explored what it means for our work to be meaningful in ways that bring honor and glory to God. We have been reminded to “Let it go” and not dwell on the past. And we have learned that we can move away from toxic relationships—we can love others and pray for them without wallowing in their mud.

            Now, dear Readers, it is time to yield to the Lord anything else that might be hindering us from moving forward with a clear mind and a light heart.

Gracious Heavenly Father,

            It is time for us to embrace whatever you have placed before us. Grant to us grace and courage to trust in you, for we are precious in your sight. Let us walk with you keeping a clear mind and light heart.

                                                                        In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
