Flesh and Blood

My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26 NIV
When I meet someone new, one of the first things they learn about me is that I teach Jazzercise and martial arts. It's a big piece of who I am and is definitely on my list of hobbies. Thus I spend a lot of time exercising.  I go to great lengths to stay healthy. Lately I've had some issues that keep me from being "100%" as they say so of course I worry that cancer may be trying to sneak in. So I try to control stress and eat right, etc because I want to be active late in life and for as long as I can be.
But I know that one day this heart will fail me. It's not to be feared. Why? Because God has promised that He is our help forever. When this life is over we will rest forever in Him. This is His promise to us. And while we are here, God breathes life into our hearts to keep us going on the road He has prepared.
So when you feel beaten down and tired, God's word can pull you back up and renew you yet again.
