今日经文｜以西结书 36:26
“我也要赐给你们一个新心，将新灵放在你们里面，又从你们的肉体中除掉石心，赐给你们肉心。”
灵修分享
人的心为什么会变得刚硬？
有时候，是因为受过伤害，不愿再相信；有时候，是因为骄傲，不肯承认错误；也有时候，是因为经历太多失望，渐渐失去了爱与怜悯。
石心不是一天形成的，而是在一次次拒绝、苦毒与自我保护中，慢慢失去了柔软。
圣经记载，法老一次又一次看见神的大能，却仍然硬着心，不肯顺服。不是因为神没有向他说话，而是他的心不愿回应。
今天，我们也可能听见神的话，却仍紧抓自己的想法；知道应该饶恕，却不愿放下；明白应该回转，却迟迟不肯迈出一步。
然而，神没有说：“你们要自己把石心变软。”
祂说：“我要除掉石心，赐给你们肉心。”
这是何等宝贵的应许！
神不只是要改变我们的行为，更要更新我们的生命。祂要除去里面的刚硬，使我们重新能够感受祂的爱、听见祂的声音，也愿意以怜悯回应别人。
真正的更新，不只是环境改变，而是心先被神改变。
今日默想
我们的心是否在某些事情上已经变得刚硬？
是否有一些人，我们不愿饶恕？一些提醒，我们不愿接受？一些过去，我们始终不肯放下？
石心使人坚持自己，肉心使人愿意顺服神。
当我们愿意向神敞开，祂就能使刚硬变为柔软，使苦毒变为饶恕，使冷漠重新燃起爱。
神所要恢复的，不只是我们失去的日子，更是我们起初那颗愿意爱祂、回应祂的心。
Removing the Heart of Stone, Receiving a New Heart
Date: 25 October 2026
Today’s Scripture | Ezekiel 36:26 (KJV)
“A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.”
Devotional Reflection
Why do our hearts become hardened?
Sometimes, it is because we have been hurt and are afraid to trust again. Sometimes, it is because of pride, making us unwilling to admit our mistakes. At other times, repeated disappointments gradually cause us to lose our love and compassion.
A heart of stone does not develop overnight. It slowly loses its tenderness through repeated rejection, bitterness, and self-protection.
The Bible tells us that Pharaoh witnessed God’s mighty power again and again, yet he continued to harden his heart and refused to obey. It was not because God had not spoken to him, but because his heart was unwilling to respond.
Today, we may also hear God’s Word yet stubbornly hold on to our own opinions. We know we should forgive, yet we refuse to let go. We understand that we need to turn back to God, yet we hesitate to take that first step.
However, God did not say, “You must soften your heart of stone by your own strength.”
Instead, He declared:
“I will take away the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.”
What a precious promise!
God does not merely want to change our behaviour; He desires to renew our entire lives. He wants to remove the hardness within us so that we can once again experience His love, hear His voice, and respond to others with compassion.
True renewal is not simply a change in our circumstances, but a transformation of our hearts by God.
Today’s Reflection
Have our hearts become hardened in certain areas of our lives?
Are there people we are unwilling to forgive? Words of correction we refuse to accept? Painful memories from the past that we still cannot let go of?
A heart of stone insists on its own way, but a heart of flesh is willing to surrender to God.
When we open our hearts to Him, He can turn hardness into tenderness, bitterness into forgiveness, and indifference into renewed love.
What God desires to restore is not merely the days we have lost, but also the heart we once had—a heart that loved Him and willingly responded to His voice.
