hearts of stone. (redemption thoughts part 2)

Alright, here's my next train of thought following Wednesday's post.

So we know that Jesus loves us? Yes.
We know that He came to romance His bride; which is you and me? Yes.
We also know that the one thing He desires most, is our returning His love? Yes?

Yes.

Did you also know, that Jesus was also so, madly in love with the Pharisees? He wanted to romance them too. He wanted to win their hearts, and dance with them.

But they snubbed their noses at him. They did not see.

I bet that broke His heart.


But the crazy part?

It's still happening; all the time, in fact. All He wants is our hearts. To lavish us with love and goodness, and yet, people reject it. They, like the pharisees, turn up their noses and deny the very thing they need.

[and it breaks His heart]

Now I challenge you:

Where is your heart?
