Heart

I was just thinking about how blessed I am with my family.. pondering what to blog about.. and then this phrase popped into my mind.  We see it stitched on pillows, hung up in picture frames, or decorating a warm smelling candle.  “Home is where the heart is”

Proverbs 27:19 “As water reflects a face, so a man’s heart reflects the man”

Matthew 6:21 “Where ever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be”

What does my heart reflect?  Where is my treasure?

This past weekend Joshua had the honor of performing a funeral or what we call a celebration of life..  As this phrase “home is where the heart is” came from my lips, I couldn’t help but think about how Chris is now where his heart was… home.

When my time comes to and end here on earth.. what will people say about me?  “She really loved her children.”  “She was a great wife.”  “She was a wonder friend.”  Sure those are great and something every mother, wife, and friend would want to hear.. But is that where my heart was?  Was my family my treasure.  Does my heart reflect the love of Jesus?
