3 Ways to Guard Your Heart

“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it...” - Proverbs 4:23

Proverbs drops a gem with this timeless truth. Our hearts hold our treasures, fears, hopes and peace. In unprecedented times like these, protecting your peace can be an uphill battle. Nevertheless, it is so IMPORTANT that we protect our peace by guarding our hearts. Here are three practical steps you can take to reclaim your peace.

1. Connect with God on a daily basis!

This is the most important part of your day. When you hand your heart over to God, through prayer, He is able to fill you with a confidence that allows you to enter into the unknown (Elsa style lol).

2. Be INTENTIONAL with your day.

Picture your day, write down your goals, and visualize yourself doing them. When you are intentional with your day it becomes harder for distractions to deter you. Although you might not get everything done, your direction has intention and makes it easier for you to say no to things that pull you away from your plans.

3. FILTER what you consume.

Not all content is worthy of taking up space in your mind. You are in control of what you consume. Ask yourself if what you are consuming is going to nourish you. Filter what you don’t have the mental or emotional capacity to consume.

Tell me how your relationship with peace is going during these trying times!
