Guard your heart above all else,
for it determines the course of your life.
Proverbs 4:23
The heart is, well, the heart of everything else in our lives. We need to guard it in terms of what we let into it and what we let out of it. Both will determine the course of our lives. Being in touch with your own inner truth, whether feelings, thoughts, needs, or desires, is part of it. Living by values built on the Bible is another part. Guarding against destructive images and other negative input is also involved. Above all else, guard your heart! And—it’s one of the most important things we can teach our children.

Yes the heart needs all the care it needs, physically and emotionally. Nice post.
I love another version of this proverb, “Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” By the way, you have cool blog template and content.
