The Heart Is What Matters

During my morning prayer time today, I was interrupted by my grandson knocking on the closed door.  I had already told him earlier that I would be praying, but when you have a young child many times you have to repeat yourself more than one time. 

As he entered the room, he noticed I was sitting in my recliner rather than the usual bowing of my knees to pray.  His comment was centered around me sitting in the chair rather than bowing, meaning that I was not really having my prayer time because I was not bowing my knees.  Because of his comment I preceded to explain to him “the heart is what matters!”  I gave him an example of my dear Mother, during her life she was wheelchair bound and crippled, she could not get down on her knees to pray, but I saw her talk to God many days out of her heart and she still made her connection with Him with her prayers.

My changed life and transformation is a result of her prayers, because prayers that really matter comes from the heart, no matter what our physical condition or position may be.  Some examples found in the Bible are in Psalms 9:1 “I will give thanks to you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.”  The example speaking of the motive of the heart is found in Psalms 26:2-3 “Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart for thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.”

The Lord knows the motive of our hearts ever before we open our mouth, even for those who cannot speak by mouth, He hears their heart and answers accordingly.  All that matters is that we must keep our heart pure from sin in order that the connection will go through as we have a relationship with Father God.
