Let your heart beat again

My Pastor’s wife recently sang to our congregation the song “Tell Your Heart to Beat Again”. The words of this song are so powerful, and so beautiful, with a depth behind them that you cannot ignore.

 

Life invariably will knock you upside the head, or even knock you right down; it is not what happened that is nearly as important as what we do when we are knocked down.

In those moments we can choose to be crushed, to withdraw, to let our hearts begin to fail.
