Prepare Him Room

My heart is big enough for God’s infinite and unconditional love!

ow big is your heart? Does it have room in it for failure? Envy? Disappointment? Unforgiven slights? Does your heart have room for the infinite, unconditional love that is God?

Denials are the broom to sweep away untruths. God’s love is the handle of the broom. With God’s love, we sweep away old clutter, not in haste, not with vigor, but knowing that God has loved us in our turmoil. Allowing God’s love to guide our denials, we tidy our consciousness as a doting grandmother sweeps up after a toddler grandchild.

Let us prepare our hearts for God’s love. It only needs a small spot to start, for the longer it resides there, the more room it will declutter for the abode of love.

Isaiah 40:9, “O Zion, that brings good tidings, get you up upon the high mountain; O Jerusalem, that brings good tidings, lift up your voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say to the cities of Judah, Behold your God!”
