TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEART!
TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEART!
We LIVE in a rough-cruel world-
FEW would argue about that=but
Jesus gives us a TOUGH command too=
He tells us to=TAKE CARE OF
OUR HEARTS=he tells us that
The demands and anxieties of LIFE
Are many=and it is EASY to
LOSE your heart to something=
INSTEAD of him and HIS FATHER
“BEWARE your hearts
Do NOT become drowsy
From carousing and drunkenness
And the ANXIETIES of
Daily life” Luke 21:34
SOME DAYS I wake up early=I
Just feel the NEED to PRAY
I live by a lake=and WHEN I
SEE the lake and the crisp golden sun=
It STARTS my heart and my day off
In a GOOD way
And you know what=
The sun doesn't need my help
To COME UP=it AROSE
All by itself=with GOD
It made me REALIZE=for SURE=
That I am NOT the center
Of the universe=
And neither are you=ONLY GOD
God is the CENTER=and we NEED
To take CARE of our hearts=we NEED
To keep our hearts=CENTEREDON GOD
OUR God must be FIRST in our hearts=
Over EVERYHTING ELSE in this world
“This is
What the Lord says--------
Israel's KING and Redeemer=The LORD ALMIGHTY
I am the FIRST-and -
I am the LAST
Apart from me-
There is NO GOD” Isaiah 44:6
“But seek FIRST his KINGDOM
And his righteousness
And ALL these things
Will be given to you
As well” Matthew 6:33
It is easy to take on
A lot of RESPONSIBILITIES
In this world
But you/we/I am NOT
The center of the UNIVERSE
The SUN will
Still come up
DON'T put God's RESPONSIBILITIES
On your tiny shoulders
LIGHTEN your heart
And THINK for a moment
About how GREAT GOD'S LOVE
Is for you
God's CARE for you
Is great too
Dear Lord=we are TAKING CARE
Of our HEARTS today-
And letting our responsibilities
RIDE on your shoulders
For you CARE for us
“What is mankind
That you are mindful
Of them?
HUMAN BEINGS
That you CARE for them?” Psalm 8:4
Dear Lord=WE TRUST YOU
WITH OUR HEARTS
In the names of Jesus and HIS MOST HEAVENLY FATHER
