Mark 12:30 (CB)

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.

“Such is man’s nature, that he is very inactive and lazy unless he is influenced by some affection, either love or hatred, desire, hope, fear, or some other. These affections we see to be the springs that set men agoing, in all the affairs of life, and engage them in all their pursuits.” -Jonathan Edwards
