Just a quick thought and prayer...

PHEW! Gotta share this with you! I just reread Proverbs 4:23, a verse that I have had memorized for a long time, but it has struck me differently this time -- "Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life." FOR IT DETERMINES THE COURSE OF YOUR LIFE! WOW! I'm really interested in doing an inductive Bible study on this verse and revisiting this area. What DOES it mean to really GUARD your heart? Is it just all of the DON'T DOS? Or is there more...?

I don't know why God has allowed me to revisit areas that I thought weren't a problem but I feel like I understand the verse better now that I'm in a situation where I really have to guard my heart. Its funny the different seasons that we go through -- things we have to remember, things we haven't had to do in a while -- that are suddenly awakened by a situation we weren't expecting.

God, help me to guard my heart. I never realized how hard it would be to be a 20-something and still single.
