Scripture:
Matthew 23:25-28
25 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. 26 You blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup,[f] so that the outside also may become clean. 27 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which on the outside look beautiful, but inside they are full of the bones of the dead and of all kinds of filth. 28 So you also on the outside look righteous to others, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
Luke 6:45
45 The good person out of the good treasure of the heart produces good, and the evil person out of evil treasure produces evil; for it is out of the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks.
Lyrics:
“How Long”
How long 'til we gaze upon Your face
Gaze upon Your face
Gaze upon Your face, Jesus
We will gaze upon Your face
In the morning light
How long 'til You wipe these tears away
Wipe these tears away
Wipe these tears away, Jesus
You will wipe these tears away
When the morning comes
Chorus
Yes I know You will come
Yes I know You've already won
Yes I know my Redeemer lives
My Redeemer lives
How long 'til there's justice on the earth
Justice on the earth
Justice on the earth, Jesus
There'll be justice on the earth
When You come again
How long 'til we hear the victory roar
Hear the victory roar
Hear the victory roar, Jesus
We will hear the victory roar
When this race is run
Come Lord Jesus
We are desperate for You here
Come Lord Jesus
All creation calling out
Come Lord Jesus
‘I want to explore the interior life
with as much intentionality as I explore the exterior life.’
Exploring the Interior Life:
Make an intentional decision to explore the interior life
Allocate time for this exploration
Be willing to make changes
Four tools for the exploration:
Read: immerse yourself in scripture with the desire for transformation. Brother Lawrence’s rich introduction to the interior life is called ‘The Practice of the Presence of God.’
Ponder
Pray
Surrender
