Modern Technology
"What the wicked dreads will overtake him; what the righteous desire
will be granted" Proverbs 10:24
Recently I went to the hospital to have several tests run. This was a
new experience for me, and I was a little overwhelmed with the
technology of it all. For the stress test, I was hooked up to a machine via
electrodes attached to my body. A lot of information about the beat of my
heart was logged as the test proceeded. The next test was an echogram.
it was explained to me that it was an ultrasound of this vital organ. I
could see my heart beating and the blood pulsing through as the
technician moved the instrument from one part of my heart to another. The
doctors will review the tests and tell me the results in a few days.
There is one fact the tests will not show, however. It is the reality
that I have a heart that beats for Jesus. This is one fact which will
not show up on any monitor, but it will show up in my lifestyle, by my
actions and my words. Only God can read the printout of this most vital
aspect of my heart. He is the only one who knows my motives, desires and
inner truths. I pray that the desires of my heart and the life I lead
will always be pleasing to God, and will bring glory to His name.
Who does your heart beat for?
