Verse Of The Week

"For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the Lord, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgements." -- Ezra 7:10

Ezra, the scribe, had a heart that should be the desire of every child of God. His heart was a prepared heart. He was prepared first to seek out and determine what God's Word said. Next, he was prepared to put what the Lord showed him into practice in his life by being a doer and not just a hearer. Finally, he was prepared to share the Word of God with other that they too might benefit and that God may be glorified in their lives. May the Lord help each and every one of us, as His dear children, have prepared hearts!
