June 25–Heart for the Lord–Day 25–THOUGHTFUL HEART
\n“Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still.” Psalm 4:4 NKJV<\/em><\/p>\n

Today’s Thought:
\n<\/u>A Thoughtful Heart thinks before it acts.
\nIt quietly mediates on God’s word and plans accordingly.
\nIt waits upon God and gives careful consideration to His will.<\/p>\n

Prayer of the Heart to the Lord:
\n<\/u>Dear Lord,
\ntoday I ask that You create in me a Thoughtful Heart, a heart that quietly thinks about what is right and wrong according to Your word.<\/p>\n

I want a heart that is attentive to You at all times. A heart that thinks before it acts.<\/p>\n

A heart that mediates on You and is still before You, listening for Your voice to guide it daily.<\/p>\n

Thank You Lord, for a Thoughtful Heart, that will think of ways to serve You daily.
\nIn Jesus name I pray. Amen.<\/p>\n

I call to remembrance my song in the night; I meditate within my heart, And my spirit makes diligent search.<\/em> Psalm 77:6 NKJV<\/p>\n
