a Pure heart...
Well I've just been thinking lately, and I wanted you all to know, that Rebecca Linzey has the purest heart of anyone I think I've ever met. Now she needs to learn and grow for sure, she's not perfect, but her Heart Is. Anyway, just wanted to make it official.

*officialized* :)
And if you see "Brother Linzey" again, tell him 'hey' for me:) He was a lot of fun!
I would have to agree with you! She is super sweet. Her heart is so pure!(as you said) and one thing I love is what you see is what you get. I have really enjoyed working with her at the OTC!
that so cool. i was talking to a friend tonight about some guy she met. he is honest and has a great heart, but she cant overlook his flaws. i told her it better than the last guy that played heads games with her. even if he had no personal flaws. what do you think?
Thank you, Lauren, it is so awsome to have you at the TC! Rebecca likes you too :-)
Alex, are you talking about Ron? Or Rebecca's dad? Ron has moved to CA... but I think you're talking about Mr. Linzey, who is totally awsome! I love it when he sings my name!
Sargini,
Welcome to my blog! I think, in answer to your question, that balance is required. I definately believe that a good heart is of greater lasting value than having "no flaws." However, a lot of the heart may be revealed Through the "flaws," depending on what they are.
Psalm 24:3&4 says,
" 3Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?
4He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully."
It appears from these verses that a
person with a pure heart will also have "clean hands"~ meaning that his actions will be in accordance with the condition of his heart. SO, everyone makes mistakes of course~ but Some "flaws" are indications of something deeper. I couldn't know about your friends new friend, just because I don't know the situation. In general, though, I'd rather be friends with someone with a good inside than someone who Jesus described as a "white-washed seplachure." Outside they are painted white, but "inwardly they are full of dead mens bones." Yuck! :P
