Knowing God - Ezekial 11:19

(from Pastor)

I will give them an undivided heart and put a new spirit in them;

I will remove from them their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh. 

Ezekial 11:19

 

Describing the differences between men and women, someone told me recently that ... 

 

Men are waffles and

women are spaghetti.

 

Imagine a fuss at home in the morning. The man goes to work and compartmentalizes. He leaves the fuss at home in the home box. When he gets to the office, he operates from the work box. When he goes to the water cooler, he talks to his buddy from the sports box. Men are waffles.

 

Women, on the other hand, are spaghetti. Everything is interconnected. No matter the task the bride is supposed to be doing -- work, shopping, kids -- the fuss with her husband is at the forefront of her heart. Spaghetti. 

 

Re-read today's verse. God -- through Ezekial -- is not just talking about waffle-hearted men when he says we have a divided heart. When it comes to spiritual matters, virtually all of us have a godly box and a worldly life. Too often we worship on Sunday and forget God -- at least to a degree -- throughout the week.

 

The key to transformational faith is not being waffles.
