Revived Heart

“For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite.”  Isaiah 57:15 (ESV)

God dwells where He is needed and where a heart of repentance welcomes His reviving grace. You will find God with those who are humble and rejected by those who are puffed up with pride. He is there for those who mourn, those who hurt, and those who struggle with loneliness. He has compassion on those who have compassion on others, whose heart’s long for God’s reviving.

Let’s pray today that we allow God’s Spirit to give us a heart for Him and His forgiveness.
