"Open Your Heart" This is the weekly email devotional of WhoUWith? Ministries (2005)   "When God measures a man, He puts the tape around the heart instead of the head." -God's Little Book of Instruction What is your reflection? When you allow people to see your heart what do they really see? What do you wish they saw? Part of loving someone is allowing them to see you for who you really are and trusting them to love you anyway. It isn't easy to lay yourself out there. The experience of rejection and acceptance are not too distance of cousins. When you allow your true heart to be seen you take the risk of rejection in hopes of receiving the treasure of acceptance. It is a gamble that we need to take or we will never experience life to the full. What does God's Word say?: "As water reflects a face, so a man's heart reflects the man." Proverbs 27:19 The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart." 1 Samuel 16:7b When others see your heart, wouldn't it be great if they saw a glimmer of Christ? To be like David, who God called, "a man after His own heart"? How can we have that kind of heart for God? Here are three suggestions: Get in the Word and Pray 2. Spend time with others who desire to have a heart for God 3. Actively pursue a growing relationship with Christ by getting plugged into a Bible-based, Christ-centered church Who needs to see your heart today? Don't let the fear of rejection keep you from being true and open with a friend or love one today! Just a thought!
