0668. HEART DIRECTION.

HEART DIRECTION.

"The Lord direct your heart into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ" (2Th_3:5).

1. Our hearts need directing, because they are wayward and deceitful.

2. Our privilege is to have them directed into the love of God; here to find peace, rest, and satisfaction.

3. Our hearts, directed into the love of God, will then be made partakers of the patience of Christ (R.V.).

(1). Into His patience in suffering.

(2). Into His patience in service.

4. Our heart director is the Lord Himself. "He knoweth what is in man, and, like Boaz, he speaks to the heart" (Rth_2:13, margin).
