(?) As the heart is
As the heart is, so is the person. The heart is the soil from which divine
plants grow; it is the source of all the power that is needed for their
growth. That is why the seed of God¹s word must first be planted in the
heart. For the same reason a mere outward conformity to the law on the
basis of fear is worthless. If it doesn¹t stem from the heart it is
hypocrisy; it is pharisaic.
The heart must be tender, kind, and good. We must be warmhearted if we are
to please God. Therefore, look to your heart. Whoever understands God¹s
will in his heart and is sensitive to it, will carry it out. Put effort
into it?stir up this feeling you have in your heart for God, so that it
lights up your whole being and turns you into a fulfilled and genuine
person of God!
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt, from Family Prayers for Each Day.
