This morning, I went to the Oregon Heart Center and had a heart monitor put on. I will wear it for a couple of weeks, and then I will get some report on how my heart is doing. Last week, I had a couple of other tests done. So far, everything is good. My heart is doing its job well.

The word heart is often used in the Bible, talking about our inner person. We are commanded to love God with all our hearts, to trust the Lord with all our hearts, wisdom enters our hearts, we meditate in our hearts, and the Bible says that our hearts are wicked. In Psalms 139:23, David asks,” Search me, O God, and know my heart.”

There is a lot of information on how to have a healthy heart; exercise and diet are the main things. The Bible also lists several things that will give us a healthy heart, and the main thing is to read the Bible faithfully. Psalms 119:11 Your word I have treasured in my heart that I may not sin against You.
