The Weight of God


Heavy hearts, heavy clouds

A heavy heart is not always a bad thing.  Knowing the Lord can cause a man to regret time spent idle when he should have been growing in understanding of the things of God.

Because of this heaviness, I find myself desiring to grow.  A desire rages inside that heavy heart like the center of a seed.  The shell of a seed is hard because it has to be.  It is protecting what is inside it.  Ain’t that why we call it a shell?  Perhaps that heaviness is a shell under attack from the soil.  It begins to rot so that the interior can burst forth.

Regardless, a heavy heart is not always a bad thing.
