A Heavy Heart Isn’t Always Bad

I’ve come to realize a heavy heart isn’t always bad.

Over the past few weeks I have wept, as have many of you, for the people in Afghanistan. Many want to leave but cannot. Several have been able to leave, but for their own reasons, have chosen to stay.

I was reminded of the time when Jesus entered Jerusalem.

And when he drew near and saw the city, he wept over it, saying, “Would that you, even you, had known on this day the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.
Luke 19:41-42

Let us not be afraid of weeping over what breaks the heart of Jesus. Remember, a heavy heart isn’t always bad.

 

What say you?

What do you wonder about?  Are you happy … or are you doing what you never thought you’d do? Do you see consistencies … or are you all over the place? Drop me a line. I’d love to chat.
