Sacred Heart Day 13
Lord, cleanse our heart and make it pure and holy
Jesus Says: Mt 15: 18-19 But whatever comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and it is this that makes someone unclean. 19 For from the heart come evil intentions: murder, adultery, fornication, theft, perjury, slander. 20 These are the things that make a person unclean. But eating with unwashed hands does not make anyone unclean.’ Whatever comes out of the mouth comes directly from the heart. When a person's heart is not pure and holy, they become unclean and lose God's mercy. Avoid all evil intents, as Jesus revealed in his own words, and this is how we can regulate our hearts' intentions. The yearning for evil makes us unclean, but not with unwashed hands. So we must keep our hearts holy and pure, and the fountains of life will pour from them. We must constantly examine our hearts to ensure that they are worthy of our Lord. All our ideas and words originate in our hearts, and controlling the hearts allows us to control our tongue. Pr 4: 23 More than all else, keep watch over your heart, since here are the wellsprings of life. Whatever comes out of the mouth comes from heart itself. Always keep an eye on our hearts; the streams of living water flow from those who keep their hearts spotless and pure. Lord will evaluate our pure hearts; let us approach Jesus with complete trust that he will give us a humble and holy heart.
