…for you, you only, know the
hearts of the children of mankind.

Chronicles 6:30
At this point in Chronicles
Solomon is praying over the Temple and dedicating it to the Lord. After all he
has done with the temple and how his father, David, has asked him to do with it
he is dedicating it to the Lord. And in this verse he tells God “You only Lord
know the hearts of man”. This verse stuck out to me and caused me to be so
thankful for who God is. God is the only one who has ever or will ever know the
depths of my heart. He knows the sinfulness, the pride, the selfishness, and
wickedness of my heart. Yet He still chooses to use me and love me unending. I
continually give Him reasons to not love me and pursue me, but He never stops
doing it. The Lord has been showing me a lot of things about myself that I
don’t like, things I need to allow Him to work on and change in my heart. And
even when He sees these things and sees even more than I do, He still loves me.
I don’t think I will ever be able to fully grasp His love for me. But I pray
that He daily makes it real like this to me.
Application- pray for a heart that welcomes and cherishes
His love and want for me.
