Be your own flame

How many times did you think that you need some encouragement… waiting for your friends to ask about you?

When you’re feeling down, you need someone to ask about you, someone to encourage you, someone to fill your days

Let me take you underneath, deeper, a little bit deeper to where your heart lies.

Your heart is one of a very few muscles in your body with a quality that is non existent in most of your body muscles, in medicine it’s called ‘the pace maker potential’

This quality is found in a very small portion of heart muscle, not even in the whole heart, it’s found in the right atrium and the wall separating the two atria.

This SA node is what starts all the heart working action.

So what does pacemaker potential mean? And why did God specified this very small part of the heart with this quality and not the entire heart?

Can you see the meaning that this part is self activating ‘self depolarization’?
It means that it doesn’t need any neurological signal from the brain.

Did you know that even when a person dies the heart keeps working for a while, until its energy is depleted then it stops?  The reason for this is something called ‘funny current’. You can read more here

Even though these fibres work automatically without any higher orders, there are things that control its activity, increasing or decreasing it, but has nothing to do with its initiation, like we said, it works automatically

Now here’s the purpose of all this…

Don’t rely on any external factors to motivate, encourage or make you happy. Don’t make a person in this world be the source of this, when he’s closer to you, you’re happier and when he’s not, you’re blue.

Look inside you heart and learn…

Let your everlasting motivation come from God. Let your happiness come from God, from his promises, from his comforting words.

Teach yourself to be self activating like your heart, when you feel that your SA node is getting lazy; activate it by a spiritual book or a prayer, like your body stimulates your SA node when you’re under stress to make the heart beat faster to supply=y your body with the nutrition it needs.

So be your own flame!
