Proverbs 4

What does guarding your heart look like?

It might mean not listening to your favorite Kanye song.

That’s what happened to me.

As I wrote about before, I downloaded a song from “Watch the Throne” because it helped motivate me to run faster.

It was inspiring and fast paced and pushed me forward.

But then I listened to the lyrics and had to be honest.

How could I say the song impacted me to run faster but the lyrics didn’t impact me at all?

It had to be one way or the other.

Proverbs 4 calls us to guard our hearts.

I don’t know what that means for you, but for me it means being more deliberate about what I put in it.
