Deuteronomy 5:29
Oh that they had such a heart as this always, to fear me and to keep all my commandments, that it might go well with them and with their descendants forever!
One of the greatest tragedies of the human heart is that it cannot stay put. It wanders everywhere and lives nowhere. This tendency highlights the need for a new heart. If the old heart could simply settle down and clean up its act, a new heart would not be necessary. But if our old heart cannot ever kick the bad habits and sober up, a new heart is a necessity. If we are going to dwell with God, He first has to give us a new heart that can dwell anywhere.
