Today’s Scripture: I said, “Let me remember my song in the night; let me meditate in my heart.” Then my spirit made a diligent search: Psalm 77:6 ESV
The inches between our heads and our hearts are few but the distance is worlds apart when it comes to contact with God.
Searching for God with our minds is limited by our understanding but allowing our spirits to search diligently opens us up to His Spirit. When we allow our spirit to search and appeal to God we can trust His works.
It is not about what we can do but He. God’s way is beyond our understanding but not outside the diligent searching of our spirit. God is great and He works wonders. My mind wanders yet my spirit finds wonder.
I cry out to God and ask Him to teach my heart to meditate. Quiet and still my mind O LORD so that Your Spirit will draw my spirit into Your kingdom. I cannot grasp this spirit but that I can be held by it. .
How do you meditate in your heart?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, I praise Your name and I seek Your Spirit with all of my heart. Teach my heart to meditate O LORD. Draw my spirit into Your Holy Spirit so that I may know You and Your wonders. Work Your mysteries in my heart. Draw me near and away from my understanding. I trust Your Spirit O LORD, work Your wonders. Amen

Oh I love, “my mind wanders yet my spirit finds wonder”! There are days, like today, when the “western” vision in my head is of a cowboy Good Shepherd, lariat in hand, wrangling my wandering thoughts–“head ’em up, move ’em back to God”. Thanking Him for you, brother–God bless you Way BIG.
Thank you Sis! I am SOOOO thankful that the Good Shepherd rounds us up and turns us back to HIM. I pray our hearts turn to HIm so the rest of us will follow:) Blessings from my heart.
Another powerful post! I love how you said this … the inches between our heads and our hearts are few but the distance is worlds apart when it comes to contact with God. Yes!!
Thank you Julie, that has been my experience for sure Julie. I can not rationally understand but in my heart I KNOW. Blessings and meditation of heart.
