The Heart ( Psalm 139:23-24)

I love reading these few thoughts by David as he dives into deep communication with the father. Its interesting to see the most powerful man of his day cry out to the God of the universe in effort to grow closer to him daily. David invites to the Lord to enter the deepest part of his life, which is his HEART. It's as if he is saying God you have full access to raid my heart when every you want look and see if there's anything that would even slightly separate me from you. Now why is this a big deal you might ask? (And it's a great question by the way asked myself the same thing). And the answer rest with in the word HEART. The human heart is the single most important organ in the human body. Because from it flows blood to every area of your body. It considered the center of who you are and because of it you have life. Over time the heart has become a symbol of Love. Phrases like " I love you with all my heart " have been repeated over and over again to express deep intamate feeling for another in our culture. So it is safe to say that the heart is not only your life support but as well who you are. I belive David understood theses beliefs of the heart and therefore spoke with complete understanding when he asked God to search his heart. He wasn't asking God to just check his heart. He was asking God to perform the first HEART SURGEY. David was asking the Lord to be apart of the deepest part of his life. He asking God to check his life support and if it was unpleasing to the Lord, David was asking God to change it. It's as if David was saying Lord I know my heart is who Iam and the most important part of my body but today God I want you to search my heart and instead of my heart being the support of my life I want you to be my life support, my source from which all my body is satisfied. Wow what a prayer David gave his heart to the Lord, I wonder if you will ?
