Heartbeat – Let Your Heart Not Be Troubled

Jun19

In these days of COVID, chaos, and social media, fear is trying to get a foothold.
Some of us have been able to overcome fear, and others, may not even know it is possible.
Here is a re-post from a long ago blog day.
It may be even more appropriate than the day of its original posting.

Fear not.

These words have been on my heart for a while.

I believe they are key to our survival in this place that is not our home.

Lately, I have noticed them every where.

In movies.

In people’s speech.

In photographs.

And digging their roots deeper into my heart with each passing day.

They are the heart of God.

The words are His.

Written to us in a love letter.

Won’t you click the links and let them seed themselves into your heart as well?

Do not let your hearts be troubled.

3:00 – 3:20

Do not let your hearts be troubled.

2:30 – 4:04

Do not let your hearts be troubled.

3:52 – 3:50

There is much in this world that would cause us to be afraid.

We must be strong and courageous,

not afraid.

We must not let our hearts be troubled.

You are fearfully and…

You Is Important

Jun17

This random thought came to my mind the other day.

Maybe not so random though since I believe that each of us is “Fearfully and wonderfully made”. Psalm 139:14.

Here is the thought;

You are important because God says you are important.

The rest is just window dressing.

What do I mean by that statement “just window dressing?”

Simply put; it matters what God thinks.

It matters what you think.

If you have others who think well of you – Fabulous!

If you do not have others who think well of you – it is so sad – but it is not the end.

God, the Creator of absolutely everything, made you.

Just how He wanted you.

And HE adores you!

The rest my friend, is extra.

Until next time …

Simple Question.

Jun15

When is a simple question not a simple question?

It was our second Sunday back in “Real” church.

Livestream church and YouTube church are still available for those who aren’t ready yet to mingle; my husband and I have been ready for weeks!

Welcome!

I often take notes during church.

My brain is such that the very minute I think “I know I won’t forget that!”, then I better write it down right away.

I want to share a few notes here with you.

Incomplete sentences, but very complete thoughts.

If you would care to share in the comments, I would love to see if how these fragments sit with you.

  • What’s the (my) problem?
  • Am I willing to put His answer into practice?
  • Pharisees = Religious Police.
  • Jesus WAS old school, a traditionalist.
  • Uncleanness comes from the heart.

I’m still toying with my answers.

As I’ve said here many times, growth is an “Inside job”.

So, inside I go.

Until next time …
