A Heart For God (3 of 3)
Series: Psalm 19

Psalm 19:12-14


Intro/Attention

Today, we're finishing up a series through Psalm 19. It's a short series I called, Rooted: Grow Deep. Live Strong. When our lives are rooted in the Word of God, we can grow and develop into who God desires us to be. This morning from the last few verses of this psalm, I'm preaching a message entitled, A Heart For God. READ TEXT
