He told them, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of the hardness of your hearts, but it was not like that from the beginning. (Matthew 19:8)
Father, let me never make decisions merely based on “what is permitted.”
Especially when because of the hardness of my heart, I’m rejecting what you say is best.
Help me to have the heart of a child—a soft heart, a trusting heart—not asking “What is permitted,” but “What does my good, good Father desire?”
