Stand Guard
skip to main |

We recently read that your heart is the most important leadership tool, not your experience, knowledge, or skills. And Proverbs 4:23 warns us to guard it. Your heart is valuable, the source of everything you do, and is under constant attack. It has only been in recent years that I've started to build an understanding of this and just how important it is to stand guard with everything I do. Vanessa and Zane seem to have a better clue than I did at their age and even now. Or was I similar and more guarded when I was young and became more vulnerable as I aged? And if that's the case, why did I become more vulnerable? Who knows . . . but I pray Vanessa and Zane always stand guard.

Prayer Reminder for Whole Self
May God bless you with a restless discomfort about easy answers, half-truths and superficial relationships, so that you may seek truth boldly and love deep within your heart.
May God bless you with holy anger at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people, so that you may tirelessly work for justice, freedom, and peace among all people.
May God bless you with the gift of tears to shed with those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation, or the loss of all that they cherish, so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and transform their pain into joy.
May God bless you with enough foolishness to believe that you really CAN make a difference in this world, so that you are able, with God's grace, to do what others claim cannot be done.
And the blessing of God the Supreme Majesty and our Creator, Jesus Christ the Incarnate Word who is our brother and Saviour, and the Holy Spirit, our Advocate and Guide, be with you and remain with you, this day and forevermore.
AMEN. ~ A Franciscan Blessing with a twist ~ as noted on Heaven Sent Ministries' Facebook page, 9.16.13
