Tune My Heart

On Ash Wednesday, we begin Lent by asking a simple but searching question: Am I in tune with the pitch? Drawing from Psalm 51, this sermon explores how drift happens gradually—through small compromises, unchecked desire, and silence where truth should speak. When David is confronted by Nathan, he finally hears how far off he has become and prays, “Create in me a clean heart, O God.” Like musicians tuning before the music begins, Lent invites us to pause, listen, and realign our hearts with God’s grace. Through a simple daily breath prayer, we practice making space and releasing what weighs us down—trusting that the God who creates can create again in us.
