So I think I have known this for a long time, but honestly the reality of it all comes and goes. There are days when I know this and live like it...and then there are days that if you saw me, you would never know that I believed this :
The heart is a matter of life and death.
I really believe that all of life hinges upon how we handle our heart . . . not that physical thing that pumps blood throughout your body, but that intangible thing that makes you, well you. Others call it your soul, but whatever you want to call it . . . it is the thing that truly defines who you are, and what you do with your life. How you treat it, guard it, share it, use it truly is a matter of life and death
So it is my goal with this blog to spend time on my heart, on my soul. I want to dedicate the time to my soul and its nourishment, and development that it deserves. The time that God intended for it to have.
I hope that you will want to join in on this journey, because your heart (soul) is precious to God, and it is worth the time invested on it. It defines who you are and who you will become, so in the words of the great theologians Switchfoot:
" This is your life; are you who you want to be ? "
If you feel your identity is out of whack, its because your heart is not lined up with the way that God has made you, and too many times I know I feel that way. So why don't you join me on this journey. I know that God will do the necessary heart surgery that each of us needs, if we just commit to take the time and allow him to do his marvelous work, to restore our hearts, those sometimes beautiful sometimes wretched things.
