June 24–Heart for the Lord–Day 24–TENDER HEART
\nThe Lord’s words to Josiah, King of Judah:”because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the Lord when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they would become a desolation and a curse, and you tore your clothes and wept before Me, I also have heard you”<\/em> \u00a0\u00a02 Kings 22:19 NKJV<\/p>\n

Today’s Thought:
\n<\/u>A Tender Heart is one that is soft and pliable. It is a heart that God can mold and use for His purposes.
\nIt is a heart that is acutely sensitive to God’s will and way.
\nIt is a heart that humbles itself to the Lord.
\nLet’s ask the Lord to give us a Tender Heart.<\/p>\n

Prayer of the Heart to the Lord:
\n<\/u>Dear Lord,
\ntoday I ask that You create in me a Tender Heart.
\nI want a Tender Heart like Josiah, King of Judah, had. One that is humble and gentle, one that is sensitive to Your will and way, for then You will hear me and cause my heart to be a vessel that beats for You. I want a Tender Heart that is soft and pliable, one that You can mold for Your use. Thank You Lord. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.<\/p>\n
