Heart Palpitation

I never worried about heart palpitations until lately...

What is this palpitation? It's like heart beat irregularity, like pounding or racing. It is felt in the chest, throat or neck. They say that it's not always serious... but for me, IT IS especially when someone you love and care for is the one feeling it.

Last night I wasn't able to sleep well because I kept on thinking about the causes and effects of this condition. I can't help but fret whenever Noel experiences this. I want to help him lessen the pang in his chest, but I don't know how. I even want to embrace him but it would make it harder for him. I believe that the easiest way for me to help him is to help relieve his worries, of course, by being a "good" girl. Why? Because the main cause of palpitation is stress and anxiety. By simply thinking of getting through the day provokes anxiety and no matter what the cause, stress is a normal condition which will occur from time to time.

CAUSES:
1. Anxiety > anticipating disaster, often worrying excessively about health, money, family, or work.
2. Stress > the result of work-related issues or ones which fall closer to home.
3. Caffeine
4. Nicotine
5. Cocaine
6. Diet pills
7. Heart Disease
8. Hyperventilation
9. Overactive thyroid
10. Anemia
11. Low levels of oxygen in your blood
12. Medications
Mitral valve prolapse

Knowing You...

All I once held dear built my life upon
All this world reveres, and wars to own
All I once thought gain I have counted loss
Spent and worthless now, compared to this

Chorus
Knowing you, Jesus knowing you
There is no greater thing
You're my all you're the best
You're my joy, my righteousness
And I love you, Lord

Now my heart's desire is to know You more
To be found in You, and known as Yours
To possess by faith what I could not earn
All surpassing gift of righteousness

Chorus

Oh to know the power of Your risen life
And to know You in Your suffering
To become like You in Your death my Lord
So with You to live and never die

Chorus

"Building a History Together" by Zondervan

I'd like to share this from one of the devotionals that I receive everyday...
This is for couples who would like to make a difference in building their lives together... So short, yet so inspiring!!!

Here it is...

Learning to cherish my sacred history with Lisa has been one of the most spiritually meaningful practices in my life. We have an unusual story, going back to the state of being, for two weeks, "junior high sweethearts." We have created a history together that is enriching, meaningful, and laden with passion. Yes, we have had to travel through a few valleys to get to where we are. Yes, there were moments when the history seemed threatened, but if the journey had its difficulties, the sights along the way and our destination have been worth it.

Don't abort your history with the spouse whom God has called you to love. Don't cheapen the experience of walking hand in hand with the God who can identify with every relational struggle you face. "May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ's perseverance."

my pride...

Hosanna by Hillsong United

I see the king of glory
Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes
The whole earth shakes

Yeeeah

I see his love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing
The people sing

[Chorus]
Hosanna
Hosanna
Hosanna in the highest [x2]

I see a generation
Rising up to take their place
With selfless faith
With selfless faith

I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees
We're on our knees

[Chorus]

Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me

Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to
Eternity

[Chorus x2]

Hosanna in the highest
