Americans fear cancer; yet; it’s not the #1 cause of death. In 2020 heart disease topped the list. That’s a fact. Concern is wise but our bodies are only temporary. “My flesh and my heart may fail, But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever (Psalm 73:26 NASB).”

His strength is sufficient for me.

“And He has said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.’ Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in distresses, in persecutions, in difficulties, in behalf of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong (2 Corinthians 12:9-10 NASB).”

I can depend on His strength. He works in me.

“Not that I speak from need, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am.  I know how to get along with little, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need.  I can do all things through Him who strengthens me (Philippians 4:11-13 NASB).”

I can trust God. I can’t trust my heart!

“The heart is more deceitful than all else
And is desperately sick;
Who can understand it (Jeremiah 17:9 NASB)?”
