29. Hymn- Jars of Clay

The first line says it all: “Oh refuge of my hardened heart, oh fast pursuing lover come”, A prayer for God to come and do what he is so good at doing, softening my hard black heart and wrapping His story around me to remind me of what we are all doing here and where we are going. I love that we get to cry out to God like this, to ask his love to melt our pride and self sufficiency. I am constantly amazed and surprised that we have a God like this, who doesn’t expect us to have it all sorted but who longs for us to come back to Him for everything. That he wants to, can do and is willing to transform my stubborn heart is something I’ll never get over.
