Open Heart Surgery

The center of our life is our heart.   The condition of our heart rests on many factors, the physical condition of our body, what we eat, how we handle stress and our emotions.  Our heart is such a fascinating organ; it even takes on our personality traits.   Our heart is strong and it is weak, it breaks, it gets hard and it gets soften, our heart grows cold and it melts. 

Sometimes we build a wall around our heart with armed guards at the entrance.  And sometimes our heart is open to anybody & everybody to reek havoc.

There are a lot of different vices that we use to mask issues of or build a wall around our heart.  Drugs & Alcohol are popular but there are also such things as work, school, hobbies, kids, men, women, and the not so obvious such as being involved in others’ business & drama, anything that would distract someone from having to deal with past hurts. 

We all want to love and be loved.  But in order for us to truly love we must unmask the issues of the heart, tear down the wall, allow Jesus in, receive & accept His love.

We must submit ourselves to the Great Physician for open heart surgery.   We must allow Him to bind our wounds with His love, heal the broken places in our hearts and make us whole.  It is only then we will be able to love with pure untarnished love and to receive the pure untarnished love that we all long for.

 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.  Ezekiel 36:26
