The other day I saw on the news that a young boy had eaten a doughnut and ended up in the hospital. There apparently were things in the doughnut that should not be. I have also heard this about cookies bought from a major fast food place. It does seem like there are many stories out there about people finding things inside their food that should not be there. Some of the things in food that I have heard about or have seen on the news are metal, glass, worms and many other things. I do love doughnuts and cookies but the next time I take a bite I might be a little more careful and look before I eat.
There are apparently things in my heart that should not be there. They are there because I forget to look at what I am consuming in my everyday life. I have let emotions, circumstances and people affect me and end up with metal, glass and worms in the middle of my heart. I have to be careful and look to Jesus before I digest the daily grind of life. Sometimes something that looks as normal as a doughnut could cause my heart to be full of the wrong things. I have to give the doughnuts of life to Him daily.
What is in the middle of your heart?
Psalm 51:10
New King James Version (NKJV)
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
