How Can I Possess and Keep a Clean, Pure Heart?

A pivotal event in life can set a new course for a person to follow indefinitely. Decisive moments include choices that may never be equaled but will need continuous, positive action that supports and strengthens those choices.

Sincerely inviting Jesus to become Lord and Savior of your life is a decisive undertaking that cannot be overshadowed. The same is true for marriage, when two people bond their lives together. Another pivotal moment occurs when one or the other faces temptation but decides to keep his or her heart pure and true.

Jesus said, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” A pivotal moment is not only longing for a pure heart but actually determining to seek and keep it pure.

God stands ready to extend his amazing grace to those who long for a pure heart. Faith in God is the source for keeping and maintaining a pure heart. May God bless you.

How Has a Pivotal Moment Changed Your Life?

Ever since human beings began gathering together in groups, rules were paramount to determine how a society functioned. The measure of a person was determined by how he or she complied with the values that bonded people together.

Individuals were judged by pivotal events that distinguished them from others but still united their life to others. A pivotal moment occurred  when a person faced a directional change that was caused by a situation that forever changed their life.

The Apostle Paul experienced such a pivotal moment on the road to Damascus when he encountered the Lord Jesus Christ. His perception of himself was transformed, as was his purpose and mission for life. A pivotal event will determine how you want to spend the time God has given you to live your life.

Committing your life and time to Jesus Christ can be the most significant pivotal moment you will ever experience. God bless you!
