Your Heart

Just a few short years ago my Grandfather was having heart problems. At one point, he flat lined. Today he has his flat line sitting on his bookshelf.

I didn't realize how scary and complex your heart is. When someone says they have a fragile heart, they mean it. We all have fragile hearts.

A little over a week ago my Grandmother had heart surgery. This surgery had only been performed 5 other times. As we gathered around her to pray before surgery, we could hear her heart monitor beating. While it was beating, all I could think to myself was please don't stop. As a family we asked God to be with the Doctors and Nurses during the surgery. Most importantly, we asked to watch over Grandma.

Less than 24 hours later, she got to go home. God is so good.

God is constantly changing our heart. Whether fixing it or stopping it, He has a plan. I am continuously thankful that my Grandparents have beating hearts and are living and breathing.

This surgery made me reevaluate my heart. Do I have things I need to fix? Can I fix them on my own or do I need God's help?

Proverbs 4:23, "Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life."
