Oh, if you could look inside my heart

 

I recently attended a leadership meeting and as I sat there surrounded by what I will call "Professional" leaders, I found myself feeling very out of place, very naive  and immature.  As I was dwelling on my shortcomings and inadequacies.  I had these words start running through my mind:  


Oh, if you could look inside my heart, you would see a frail broken little girl looking for her place to be.

Oh, if you could look inside my heart, you would see, a frail little girl willing to cry with thee.

Oh, if you could look inside my heart, you would see this broken little girl’s pure love for thee.

Oh, if you could look inside my heart, you would see the great love this little girl has for her Eternal Father, her eternal family and His great plan of happiness for all to see.

Oh, if you could look inside my heart, you would see her sincere desire to serve her Lord her God with all her being.

Oh, if you could look inside my heart, you would see Our Eternal Father’s great love for thee.

Oh, if you could look inside my heart, you would see a sound understanding of our Eternal Father’s plea, ‘Remember the worth of souls are so very precious to me.’”


I believe it was a gentle reminder that the Lord looks upon the heart and He had his reasons for calling me to this leadership position and that I need to keep trusting in Him.
