I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me to live is Christ and to die is gain. (Philippians 1:20-21)

Keep the Heart
A helpful reminder from John Flavel in his book entitled, Keeping the Heart, related to the importance of being vigilant against the temptations and attacks of enemy ... we must stay in a constant state of alert:
Keeping the heart is a constant work. Keeping the heart is a work that is never done until life is over. There is no time or condition in the life of a Christian which can allow a let-up of this work ... A few minutes' break from the task of watching their hearts cost David and Peter many a sad day and night. It is the most important business of a Christian's life. . . . "My son, give me your heart," is God request.
