I am currently in the process of memorizing Psalm 71, and God is keeping my heart filled up to overflowing, as I have the gift and “food” of meditating on how faithful God is to me all day. I have been hurt by someone recently, and I am turning to God with that hurt, just like I teach others to do through my health coaching.
As I meditate on Psalm 71 all day in order to memorize it, God is KEEPING me lifted up through His loving Holy Spirit. As I work with new people, who have often gained weight through heartache, I ask them, “How much time are spending in the Bible for God to fill up your heart?” Yes, I am still working out early in the mornings and walking miles at sunset, but it takes more than that sometimes.
I continue to have strength and victory and all of the gifts only God can give—but only as I lean on Him. The Lord continues to keep my heart at peace and satisfied like no one else can do, and, oh the very real love I feel in the process that makes any hard time worth it!
