Heart Check-up

My cardiologist knows my heart.

He has measured every chamber.

He knows the capabilities of each valve.

Thick files report specifics details of my heart.

There may never be another who knows my heart as well as he does.

But, he will never be the passion of my heart.


Dan, my husband, is my passion.

My heart was given to him 25 years ago.

I am his.

He is mine.

We are one.

No other person holds my heart like he does.


However, Jesus knows my heart better than anyone.

He has complete knowledge of every physical attribute of my heart.

After all, He made it and He gives me every heartbeat.

He is the passion for which I live.

He is my Lord.

I am His.

He is mine.

And I am forever in Him.

His Words delight me and reveal to me His heart.


What is the condition of your heart?

What kind of relationship with Christ does your heart have?

Is it like the cardiologist? All knowledge?

Have you gone from knowledge to a relationship?

I first knew Dan, and then I later gave him my heart.

He is the most important person in the world to me.

I first knew of Jesus, and then he became the passion of my heart.

I learned that knowledge was not a relationship.

Knowledge is only in the mind - not in the heart.


Do you base your relationship with Jesus on your knowledge?

Do you base your relationship with Jesus on the passion for which you live?


He (Jesus) said to them, "You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of men, but God knows your hearts…” Luke 16:5

Jesus knows your heart and he desires your passion.
