Bridges

“It’s one thing to know the answer, but it’s also another to act it out.”

Today I learned it’s also another thing to realize it in your heart. I had a problem earlier, and I knew the answers but just couldn’t bring myself to do anything. But I learned soon enough that sometimes it takes a little compassion to see your exact problem in the soul of another person and see how they deal with it.

My friend opened up and called to his friends. They connected and helped him through and we all prayed together for his confidence and realization of his potential. They didn’t know but they had just hit 2 birds with 1 stone.

Today I learned about the 3rd and most important part. The transition between the mind, the body and the soul is the heart. It’s like the moles in chemistry: everything revolves around the moles and to get from one thing to another, you need to go through the moles.

Like in life, everything revolves around the heart and to get from the mind to the body, or from the soul to the mind, or wherever, you need to go through the heart.

I think this is why Jesus really wants us to guard and preserve our hearts. He really means it when he says that they are the source of life and through them, they are the only way to transition from us to the heavenly Father.

So next time we’re stuck in insecurity when we know the correct answer but cannot pull ourselves to take action, remember that we need to realize it in our hearts first if we really want to move. And if that’s still a bit too hard, then maybe we should consider connecting with other hearts. :)

“Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.” -Proverbs 4:23
