• Psalm 51:6 — "You desire truth in the inward parts."

• Mark 9:24 — "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief."

• Psalm 34:18 — "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted."

There's a kind of worship that doesn't need a microphone.

It doesn't need a Hammond B3.

It doesn't need a choir or a praise team.

It's the worship that happens when you finally tell God the truth.

Not the church truth.

Not the rehearsed truth.

Not the "I'm blessed and highly favored" truth.

I'm talking about the real truth.

The truth you don't post.

The truth you don't testify about.

The truth you don't want anybody to see.

The truth that lives in the inward parts.

God says, "That's what I want."

Because God can't heal what you pretend isn't hurting.

I decided to interrupt my own series for Holy Week. He is the reason for the season, right? Check out this biblical history perspective of the man we know as Jesus of Nazareth.

Don't Walk Away From the Mirror - James 1:23-24

There's a certain kind of honesty that only shows up when you're standing in front of a mirror. Not the mirror you check before you leave the house. I'm talking about the mirror that tells the truth. The mirror that doesn't care about your title, your age, your résumé, or your excuses. The mirror that shows you you.

James says that hearing God's Word without doing anything about it is like looking in that mirror, seeing something wrong, and then walking away like you didn't see a thing.

And family… we've all done it.

Psalm 90:12 whispers into that space: "Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom."

Psalm 34:18 — "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

If God is close to the brokenhearted, then being brokenhearted is not a disqualification. It's a location where He meets us.

Shalom baby,
