Sees My Heart

Do not stare at me because I am dark...Songs of Solomon 1:6

I have heard numerous sermons about how God sees my heart. I have heard numerous sermons about how God sees me as lovely even when I am dark. Recently, I listened to a sermon by Mike Bickle, and I received greater revelation on these popular messages.

I really can't explain the new revelation. I will only restate the truth, which I have heard numerous times before. Mike Bickle didn't even put this truth in new language. He didn't say anything I hadn't heard before. However, my heart was awakened to these truths in a deeper way.

When God hears the "yes" in my heart, He accepts that yes and then guards it. He locks my hidden yes into His own heart, and then He dedicates Himself to it. He causes those desire to come to pass because it pleases Him. He doesn't let my human weakness taint that yes. It is against His nature to let our failure ruin our godly desires.

God doesn't see my failure or my weakness. He sees what I desire to be. As I began to meditate on this, I realized that God doesn't know Tamara Peachy as you know her. He doesn't even know me as I know me. He knows the "me" I want to be! He knows the blameless, beautiful, committed, healthy, humble woman I have always desired to be.

My deepest desire is to please God. Therefore, because of God's mercy and grace, I am His greatest pleasure. I want to bring God delight all the time. Therefore, I am God's delight all the time. Every pure motivation of my heart is accepted and accomplished in the Beloved!
