One of the
things I like about owning
our home is decorating and
painting. Putting some of myself into the house.
I decided before we moved in to dedicate the dining room to Jesus.
A room fit for a King. (I
know it may sound corny but stick with me. My
love for Jesus makes me sound corny from time to time.)
It's been
a few years now and we haven't had the money or time to makeover the
dining room. I was sitting at the dining room table and telling the
Lord I'm sorry I haven't hardly touched the room. About that time I
glanced up at the TV in the living room and there was a travel show
on showing the beautiful cathedrals full of golden chairs, the best
fabrics and breath-taking art and stained glass. Every detail was
grand. At that moment it struck me that people go to great lengths to dedicate buildings, rooms, homes, pieces of art, etc. to God, yet what He really wants is our heart. The dedication of our heart, our life, our ALL is worth more to the Lord then all the jewels in the world. It's a relationship with us Jesus is interested in. I still plan to go ahead with my plans for the room fit for a King. What Jesus really wants to know is, do you have room in your heart for me?
