Rend Your Heart (Joel 2:12-13)

What does it mean to "rend our hearts"? To rend one's heart literally means to "tear away". How does this occur? We humbly come to the Lord in true repentance and we ask, "Lord take this (whatever the sin) out of my heart because I don't want anything between my heart and Your heart, Jesus.

We find no sloth or negligence in Gideon or his three hundred; though they...
