Lifting Our Hearts No Matter What – Quote of the Week

June 1, 2013 By Jean Wise


Refuse to fall down.

If you cannot refuse to fall down, refuse to stay down.

If you cannot refuse to stay down, lift your heart toward heaven, and like a hungry beggar, ask that it be filled, and it will be filled.

You may be pushed down.

You may be kept from rising.

But no one can keep you from lifting your heart toward heaven.

Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés

    Hi Jean
    This is so true. Yet, we often try all the other possibilities to get up before we lift our heart upwards to our Lord! Oh, why do we do the things we do when we can just come to Jesus and rest in Him.
    Have a great weekend.
    Mia
