Your heart beats 60-70 times a minute. That’s roughly 4,000 beats an hour,
90,000 beats a day, and 672,000 beats a week.
Depending upon your level of activity, your heart can beat up to a million times a week. This power source is free. You never get a bill for your heart beat. The heavenly power company never sends you a bill that says, “Dear customer, our records show that you are in arrears for the beat of your heart from the day it started. Pay up now or we are shutting off your power.” You never get a bill, because every beat of your heart is free. It is a gift .The mere fact of our existence is an unearned, incredible, awesome gift.
It’s easy to take those heartbeats for granted . It’s easy to believe we are the source of our blessings, that somehow we are the cause of our life. It’s easy to begin to praise the gods of silver and gold, which have no life and do not see or hear or know. It is easy to forget and to not honor the one who lavishes us with the gift of every heartbeat.
Don’t let money become your god. You can never buy a heartbeat. Life is a gift of God.
