Gospel Reflections #733: The temple in our hearts

2 Chronicles 6:14  "O LORD, God of Israel, there is no god in heaven or on earth who can compare with you. O God who keeps your covenant and pours out your mercy on your servants who walk before you with all their hearts."

After Solomon completed the temple, he offered a prayer to God.

This is an expression of how Solomon received and praised God.

The God of Israel is a loving and covenant-keeping God.

The God of Israel is the God who always keeps His promises through His word, while the other gods, as they are called, have neither love nor covenant.

We respond to God with praise and thanksgiving by remembering how He works in our daily lives and by experiencing a sense of connection with Him in the process.

The temple is in our hearts.

How we use it is up to us.

The temple is the only place where we can meet with God, talk with Him, share with Him, be accepted by Him, and be healed.

We have already been given it.

God is always waiting for us.

No matter how many times we go to see Him, He will not be smothered.

Let God pour out His life in His love!
