The Thought of Sin vs. The Thought of Him

I have been saturating in Genesis this morning. One two-verse portion leaves my soul raw with its sad reality:

Genesis 6:5-6 (GWT) -- The LORD saw how evil humans had become on the earth. All day long their deepest thoughts were nothing but evil. The LORD was sorry that he had made humans on the earth, and he was heartbroken.

These two verses explain why I radically hate even "the thought of sin". Sin (evil) breaks the heart of my Loving Holy God.

Today, let us be sure to turn our thoughts totally away from all evil and let us be consumed with "the thought of Him".

It Broke God's Heart!

I have been reading chronologically through the Holy Bible since January 1, 2011, and a few nights ago these words in Genesis 6 shell-shocked my soul with excruciating pain for my Loving Father God:

(5) Now the LORD observed the extent of the people’s wickedness, and He saw that all their thoughts were consistently and totally evil. (6) So the LORD was sorry He had ever made them. It broke His heart.
-- Genesis 6:5-6 (NLT)

Break My Heart With What Breaks Yours, My God!
