Heart Month


Rest your heart in God, let yourself float on the safe waters, loving life as it comes, with all the rough weather it may bring. Give, without counting how many years are left, not worried about surviving as long as possible. ~ Brother Roger

February. I have written daily for one month. I must confess I am delightfully surprised by my discipline.

February is heart month. Heart and Stroke Month is one spinoff of that theme. Valentine’s Day makes its appearance. Working in the education setting, February is also I love to read month. Hearts abound in this month.

What is happening in your heart today? Is it a healthy heart? Is it a happy heart? My heart is resting in God today. These past few weeks have been full of unexpected events, many sad. Even in my weariness tonight though, I must confess that I love life. I always have, turbulent weather and all. Brother Roger of Taize was such an amazing man. Taize is a place that I adore. I thought I might return there this year to celebrate my half century. I am still debating that.

In my heart today, I hold my uncle and his/our family, and my sister-in-law and her family. It is one week since my uncle and my sister-in-law’s sister died.

peace,

Suzanne
