Take Care

There are some things you can do with stale bread, but none of them sound too appetizing!  The Lord has things to say about hardened hearts, and we are wise to take heed: “Therefore, as The Holy Spirit says, ‘Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts' …” (Hebrews 3:7-8).  There’s an implied change that occurs in the spiritual heart, and a dire warning to the Believer: “Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the Living God.” (3:12).  The upkeep of the spiritual heart is a continual matter, and we have a responsibility to one another regarding it: “But exhort one another every day, as long it is called today, that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.” (3:14).  See, I told you – stale is no good!  Take care in this matter!
