Vessel (definition 1, www. Merriam-webster.com)
A. A container (such as a cask, bottle, kettle, cup or bowl) for holding something.
B. A person into whom some quality (such as grace) is infused
The heart is a vessel, by either definition – a container, or the core of a person. Either way, the heart will contain something, be infused by something. If it isn’t God, it will be something else.
Please God, let it be you. Amen.
AMEN! Loved all those old songs growing up (as a Methodist), too.
I knew you would be familiar with all of them – such a wonderful trove of tunes and simple lyrics. Peace, Johnna
