A Heart Remembered

Hope...
it’s in being remembered.

Sorrow...
it’s in being forgotten.

A heart remembered is a joyful heart -
content and full,
serene.

A heart forgotten is a tearful heart -
melancholic,
unseen.

An honored love is well esteemed -
a treasure, favored,
adored.

Disregard is trampling -
a heart, a love
ignored.

Forgive,
yet build a boundary -
shield a heart exposed.

Remember
a heart’s fragility -
protect, safeguard, compose.

Nurture a heart
with tender love,
embrace it with mindful care.

A heart that endures
is fortified,
no castle in the air.

A heart that is given
to Christ alone
will sing of strength and peace.

In Christ alone
my hope is found,
with love forever increased.


“In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This cornerstone, this solid ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My comforter, my all in all
Here in the love of Christ I stand.”
      ⁃      from the song In Christ Alone, by Keith and Kristyn Getty

“We put our hope in the Lord. He is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord, for our hope is in you alone.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭33:20-22‬ ‭NLT

“Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in him.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭62:5‬ ‭NLT‬‬
