Pastor John has thought in terms of two heart dispositions:
Gravity:
For the LORD spoke thus to me with his strong hand upon me, and warned me not to walk in the way of this people, saying: “Do not call conspiracy all that this people calls conspiracy, and do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread. But the LORD of hosts, him you shall honor as holy. Let him be your fear, and let him be your dread. And he will become a sanctuary. (Isaiah 8:11-14)
Gladness:
Send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling! Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy, and I will praise you with the lyre, O God, my God. (Psalms 43:3-4)
Gravity and Gladness will be the topic of the next Desiring God Seminar on Nov 11-12 in Minneapolis with John Piper and special guest Bob Kauflin. Join us!
