A spiritual heart transplant.



Psalm 51:10-12

Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation

Heart transplants are incredibly rare. Only the most skilled doctors can perform the surgery. For that patient on the other side of surgery it means a new lease on life.

Our hearts are corrupted to the core. They are filled with wicked intentions and sinful desires.

But with God you have a heart surgeon on speed dial. He gives you a new heart that desires what he wants. You have a new lease on life.

When have you seen your need for a heart renewed by God? How does his power to forgive give you confidence?
