What is trACker?
GodTracker and trACker owe their origins to an international Christian radio programme produced by Dudley Anderson called, OnTrack. Although OnTrack went off-air in 2005, trACker has continued to help people to track God's plans and purposes for their lives since July 2003.

Whatever You Do, Don’t Allow Your Heart
We have always been taught that the hardest substance known to man is the diamond. Well I beg to differ. I believe the hardest substance known to man is the very heart of man himself. Because of the hardness of heart wars have been fought; because of the hardness of heart men and women have missed out God’s call to ministry; because of the hardness of heart young couples divorce and because of the hardness of heart men and women reject the love of God and die in sin. |
I once knew a young couple who had been married for several years when the husband fell in love with another woman. It’s the age old story of a strong marriage being shipwrecked by tainted love. The young man thought that he loved his wife but when opportunity presented itself, he found himself falling for another. It was, however, a genuine love he felt for the other woman, though it was a wrong love. It wasn’t long before his secret was revealed and the deluded husband found himself face to face with his distraught wife. He repented but, sadly, the love he had developed for the other woman consumed him. Gradually their marriage flagged and amidst much pain and confusion the two came to the point of considering divorce. However, as Christians (indeed, this scenario does happen to Christians), though reluctantly, they kept their eyes on Christ. One day as they were discussing separation they looked into each other’s eyes. Just then the word of God came to them and did what it does best – it shattered their hardened hearts like a hammer shatters a rock in pieces. It said: “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear,” (1 Jn 4:18). “So guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith with the wife of your youth,” (Mal 2:15). The hardest substance known to man became putty in the hands of the Eternal God. A cold decision was then made not to separate. An equally cold decision was made to undo tainted love and love what God had ordained. Today, I’m happy to report that these two dear folk are thriving as husband and wife with a newfound love that is deeper than any other.

"God looks at the heart and not the hands. Whatever you do, don’t allow your heart to harden."

Dear God Tracker, has the Lord recently been speaking to you about something personal in your life? Have you heard the call of God to serve him fulltime; have you heard God’s call to surrender your life fully to him; have you sensed the nudge of the Holy Spirit to witness to a friend or let on at work that you’re a Christian? Dear God Tracker, have you been hardening your heart in your relationships – your marriage – believing that you are always in the right? Remember, love is a choice! God’s word to you is this: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.” (Heb 4:7). God looks at the heart and not the hands. Whatever you do, don’t allow your heart to harden.
God-tracking is keeping your eyes on Jesus and your heart soft.
Every blessing
Dudley

Let Peace Rule My Heart
Colossians 3:15
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.
Pray:
Father God I’m sorry for resisting your call on my life. O my Lord, today I choose to soften my heart and loosen my grip on my own life. Somehow I’ve become so consumed with my own opinion that I have lost my peace. Take every aspect of who I am, O Lord, and help me to live right before you in grace and humility. Help me to stand up for what is true for truth sake not my own opinion’s sake. Help me to consider others more important than myself and help me to serve within your Body you as you call me to do. Thank you Lord for your love and grace. Thank you Lord for your peace. Let peace rule my heart. Amen.
