Recently, I woke up in bed to a racing heart after an intense dream.
So I put my hand over my heart, took deep breaths, and meditated on scripture to calm down.
Suddenly, a thought zoomed into my mind:
“Jesus, You are my Heart Keeper!”
The phrase came from my meditation upon Proverbs 4:23:
Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.”
If the wrong thing or wrong person is keeping your
heart, it can cause major life issues!
For many years, I thought food was keeping my heart.
Food was what I ran to when I was anxious or felt
emotions too painful for me to handle.
That coping pattern led me to eat my way up to 240 pounds and a size 22.
However, the Lord led me to
the core of my heart issue. With that revelation, I lost over 85 pounds.
I believe this principle will help you too.
