Title: Guard Your Heart (Proverbs 18:14)
There is an old saying that everything in the world depends on your mind.
Guard your heart above all else, for it is the source of your life. No matter what happened yesterday, you are a wise person who lives without being affected by it today.
As we start a new week, we should forget about the past and live in a new hope.
(Example) There was a young man with crutches among the famous Daeak students.
The easy-going young man was very cheerful and optimistic at the same time.
Not only that, he did well in his studies and won many awards, and he was the object of envy, praise, and respect from his fellow classmates.
But one day a friend asked how he had become so crippled.
Because of polio, he gave this simple answer.
Still, my friend asked me if I could tell you the secret of how I can handle everything with such confidence and live well.
Then he replied:
It's nothing! Because the disease didn't even penetrate my heart!
The problem for us is not that something happened, but that it penetrates our hearts.
I shouldn't lose tomorrow because of my shortcomings or problems I can't fix.
Today and tomorrow are more important to us than yesterday.
Therefore, if today or tomorrow is wrong because of the past, there is no such thing as sad.
Guard your heart above all else, for it is the wellspring of life.
May the coming week be a bright and beautiful week....
