[:en]Thoughts from “Our Daily Bread” (10/20/17)[:]

[:en]Retired physicist Arie Riet created art works by showing the inner complexity of flowers, fish, birds, reptiles and monkey through the scan X-rays developed into the computer and add colors to its pictures.

When God told Samuel to look for Israel’s king, his first choice was Eliab because of his physical traits.  But God told Samuel:  “People kook at the outward appearance but the Lord look at the heart” (s Sam. 16:7).  God chose David instead of Eliab to be Israel’s next king.

Ask God to examine your heart (Ps:139:23) and to create in you a pure heart and renew a steadfast Spirit within you (Ps. 51:10).  “Trust the Lord with all your heart and lean not in your own understanding” (Prov. 3:5)  “Keep your heart with all diligence for out from it flows the springs of life”  (Prov. 4:23)

Let us pray this prayer:  “Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.  See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting” (Ps. 139:23-24)
