Matter of the Heart

By Max Lucado

“Create in me a clean heart, O God.”  Psalm 51:10 TLB

Ever blamed your plight on Washington? (If they’d lower the tax rates, my business would work.) Inculpated your family for your failure? (Mom always liked my sister more.) . . .

Consider the prayer of David: “Create in me a new heart, O God . . .”

Real change is an inside job. You might alter things a day or two with money and systems, but the heart of the matter is and always will be, the matter of the heart.
