Getting Beat Up Isn't So Bad

Rosie was dancing wildly while listening to some Japanese song this morning. She came into the kitchen panting and said, "Man, that really beats up my heart!" I knew what she meant to say was that it increased her heartrate, but I loved the way she put it.

It made me think of all the things that "beat up my heart". If I could just make a habit of taking thoughts of the things that beat me up and focusing instead on thoughts of the things that make my heart beat faster...I think I would live happier.

Dear Abba...please find ways to beat up my heart today. I'll be looking for them.

I've just got caught up on reading your blog, and... what a few months you've had. :-( I especially appreciated what your sons wrote following the loss of their grandmother. May you continue to find your comfort in the Lord now and in the months ahead.

Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. :-)
