Hear Joni share about a little boy’s faith during heart surgery. It’s a great reminder that when Jesus lives in your heart – His presence should be visible in your life.
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada, asking, do people see Jesus in your heart? We all understand what that means, but one little boy – and I’ll call him Tommy – took it to a deeper level. Tommy had serious heart problems and had to undergo open-heart surgery. The surgeon explained to Tommy that he was going to have to cut open his heart, and fix the problem, and then sew him back up. After the grueling procedure, the surgeon visited the little boy to see how he was recovering. And that’s when Tommy turned to the surgeon and whispered, “Did you see Jesus in my heart?” What a poignant reminder that the Spirit of Jesus really does reside within us. Not figuratively, but literally. And that fact alone should impact everything we do. After all, Proverbs 4 says our attitude and actions flow from our hearts. So, friend, what’s in your heart? Is it Jesus? Then let Christ show from the inside out.
