Living
a good life depends on your personal values, which supply meaning and purpose
to your life. They are the heart and soul of your existence. Values that are
enhanced by the presence of Christ Jesus provide energy and power for staying
focused when life becomes too difficult or too easy. It's during these times when
your values may be discounted or suppressed, implying they are outdated and
insignificant for what you now want to be and do.
God's presence in our lives gives values the strength
to endure. If you were asked, "What do you value most," what would
you say? David, described as a man after
God's own heart, begged God to create in him a clean heart.
In this
context, the word heart describes David’s
conscience that yearned to be unshackled from failures in thoughts and deeds. God's
word makes it clear that anyone who seeks him with a repentant heart will find
him, regardless how deep into sin that person may have plunged. It's a
significant choice and is necessary for reclaiming your faith and lost values.
