_ministry_a work of heart #1_a heart fully alive
DESCRIPTION
Week One of the "Work Of Heart" Series I am preaching on. Based on the positive lessons that can be learned from the story of David & Bathsheba in 2 Samuel 11-12; Psalm 32 and Psalm 51. In this message I introduce the idea of a healthy heart then spend quite some time telling the story and concluding with the key lessons that answer the question "How can we live with a heart FULLY ALIVE?" The focus in on Men, it was shared on Fathers Day here in Australia. The application is far wider that that. ENJOY.TRANSCRIPT

8 The Lord is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.
9 He will not constantly accuse us, nor remain angry forever.
10 He does not punish us for all our sins; he does not deal harshly with us, as we deserve. 11 For his unfailing love toward those who fear him
is as great as the height of the heavens above the earth. 12 He has removed our sins as far from us
as the east is from the west. 13 The Lord is like a father to his children,
tender and compassionate to those who fear him.
