Returning…

without comments

I find it almost hard to believe a case must be made that the heart is . . . well, at the heart of it all.

Of life. Of God. And of Christianity.

But our Enemy has come against us, and now we are all in some way like the Tin Woodman. We, too, have suffered a series of blows over time. And we, too, have seized upon efficiency, busyness, and productivity as the life we will live instead.

Now we are lost. Dazed. Alert and oriented times zero. Sleepwalking through life.

In order to find our way out of those woods, we must return to the heart.

What small step can you take today on that return journey?
