of course place a great deal of emphasis on the mind. They
practically worship the mind. The heart, however is central to the
message of the Bible for the heart is central to we, who He created.

satan
schemes for ways to get us to look outward to looks and possessions
and jobs, all the things that will never last nor will they ever bring
life.
The
heart is the prize to be protected at all cost. When we look at the
lengths that our Creator went to protect our heart from eternal
destruction, can we doubt its value or import?
“Love
the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with
all your strength.”
