    This week we’ll look at a heart filled with purpose, a heart dedicated to God, His word, and His way. And in this study, we’ll not only be looking at the life of Daniel, but also at what Paul said to the Philippians about Jesus, and Jesus’s description of a disciple.

    The real Christmas story begins long before the birth of that baby boy in Bethlehem; it begins in a place called Heaven, the home of God. Something took place in the mind and heart of God that made it all possible. That something is what was expressed by

    Our heart matters to God. And our heart will either lead us towards God, or away from God. When you listen to your heart now, and every heartbeat is translated into words, what words would you hear?

    If I am going to cultivate a grateful heart, I need to change my focus: 1. From what I don’t have to what I do have. 2. From getting a blessing to being a blessing. 3. From earth to eternity.

    This psalm is an example of an “imprecatory prayer,” as it contains brutal honesty and an earnest call for God to bring His justice to bear on the wicked.

    A Cry from the Heart As many of you know, I like to begin my sermons with humor, often at my own expense. This morning as we come to Psalm 10 in our series called, “Praying Through the Psalms,” I must confess that I can’t find anything very comical about this cry from the heart. Last week we ...read more
