What is the condition of your heart? If you are like me you have heard "The pathway to hell is paved with good intentions," but is it really? Are our intentions not a reflection of our heart? Though we may fail our intended outcome, we keep striving because our heart is in the right place.
How many have ever had a child and punished them for trying? I dare say not many. Why would we expect our heavenly Father to be any less compassionate towards us? We will all make mistakes and fail, because we are trying, but God is always willing to use us if we are faithful in our walk with Him.
The other day I had many opportunities to lend a helping hand. It would seem at ever corner someone was reaching out for help, and God allowed me to be in the right place at the right time. It is during those times I am reminded that this is why we are here, in a very tangible way. Today, this moment, right where we are, mistakes and all. God is able to use us IF we allow ourselves to be available, to our family, friends, neighbors and sometimes even strangers.
May our hearts be faithful today in all we do, "For Your Glory".
