As I was reading my Bible I came across the verse in Proverbs 21:2: " Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts."

I have read it so many times before, but my eyes fastened on the word, "ponder" this time. I was glued to the thought that "the Lord ponderth the hearts."

Ponder means to "weigh in the mind, appraise, to think about, reflect on or consider especially, quietly, soberly, and deeply. Especially for a noticeable length of time. To meditate in a deeper process, than just thinking."

Typically we only attribute that word only for us as we ponder the word of God. But instead it was the Lord that I richly sensed that wanted to get my attention to the fact that He ponders our hearts in His own loving, quiet reflecting.

Especially noticeable lengths of time. I thought of the depths of His ever-searching eyes that pierce through into places so closed up and secret. How deeply He knows us!

In this busy, loud, chaotic world, make it your practice to be still and quiet always before Him. Pray meditiatively, read your Bibles meditatively, and when you do, consider that God is pondering your heart the same way and at the same time.

This is the purest union and communion with Him in sweetest loving exchange.

"Heaven...a place where everything that is not music is silence." ~ George MacDonald
