About The Heart

Each day I take one or more verses, beginning at the beginning of the Bible, including the word heart. To that I add a little informal commentary.

The Words that are Life

Deuteronomy 32:46
he said to them, "Take to heart all the words I have solemnly declared to you this day, so that you may command your children to obey carefully all the words of this law.

Moses gave to Israel a song to remind them of all God had done. Then he summed it up one last time in verse 46. "Take to heart all the words..." He adds that they are not just idle words--they are life. Those words should be taken into my secret thoughts, displacing the idle thoughts, negative musings, misplaced longings.
