«For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent and live!» Ezekiel 18:32 (NIV)
Your heart and the heart of your mom and dad are dirty because of sin. We are all born this way. We are selfish, we don’t like to share what we have, we are proud, sometimes we think we are better than others. But when we surrender our hearts to Jesus, He cleans our heart every day.
God does His job, which is to clean our heart and forgive us. But we also have a job. Do you know what it is? Every time we commit a sin or disobey God, we need to tell Him: “Dear God, I have sinned, and I am sorry. I don’t want to disobey anymore. Will You forgive me?”
When we do this, God is very happy and makes our hearts clean.
Let’s practice!
Cut out a white heart and put it on the wall in your room or on the refrigerator.
