"But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart."
I was struck by the word "kept" in this scripture. How do we keep the things we should keep in order to ponder on them more later? I think this verb is every bit as important as the pondering verb. She had to first keep the things before she pondered them. So what do I keep? Hopefully I keep the evidences of God's love and the evidences that life is beautiful and worth living. You could also keep negative thoughts, though, and that would bring you grief as opposed to the closeness to the divine which can enlighten us all!
