'Love Jehovah With Your Whole Heart'
More than all other qualities, love truly makes our heart responsive to Jehovah's direction. A heart filled wiht love for God makes a person eager to learn what pleases God and what displeases him. (1John 5:3) Jesus said: " You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind." (Matthew 22:37) May we deepen our love for God by making it a habit to reflect on his goodness, by regularly speaking to him as to an intimate friend, and by eagerly talking about him to others.
By way of review: Acquiring a heart agreeable to Jehovah involves allowing God's Word to influence what we are inside, the secret person of the heart. Meaningful personal study of the Scriptures and appreciative meditation are a must. This is best done with a prepared heart-a heart free from preconcieved ideas, one that is filled with qualities that make us teachable! Yes, with Jehovah's help, a good heart can be acquired. However, what measures can we take to safeguard our heart?
