Doctors use a procedure, called a heart cath, to exam how well your heart is working.  A catheter is inserted into a large artery, often at the wrist.  Contrast dye is then injected into the heart, in effect, creating a “movie x-ray.”  The doctor uses these images to look for blockages in the arteries.

What does God see when He looks at your heart?  Does He see a heart that trusts in Him (Psalm 28:7)?  Does He see a heart where His word is hidden (Psalm 119:11)?  Does He see a heart that is pure (Matthew 5:8)?  Does He see a heart that is forgiving (Matthew 18:35)?  Does He see a heart that loves Him completely (Matthew 22:37)?  Does He see a heart that is filled with anxiety (John 14:1)?  Does He see a heart that is sensitive and touched by sin (Acts 2:37)?  Or does He see a heart that is hardened and insensitive to sin (Mark 10:5)?  Does He see a heart where Christ dwells (Ephesians 3:17)?  Does He see a heart that strives to do His will (Ephesians 6:6)?  Does He see a heart where the peace of God rules (Colossians 3:15)?

What does God see when He looks at YOUR heart?  It’s something to think about.
