The 6/30 verse is from 2 Chronicles 6:30, "then hear from heaven, where you live, and forgive. Give your people whatever they deserve, for you alone know the condition of the human heart." NLT

The main undercurrent in this passage is praise. The prelude into this can be loosely translated to say, "No matter how bad things get, a grateful heart - full of praise- can color your world from pale to bright. That is, if your motives are pure and your heart is right.

It is really a bit scary to tell God to give us what we deserve. What if we have sin or unforgiveness in our heart? What if we have worse? Do we want God to give us what we deserve? We deserve death, but our God is gracious. If we can get our hearts around that, I think God will reveal His love and Presence in our lives. He, alone, knows the condition of the human heart. Let's be careful not to get what we deserve.
