Head + Heart

Matthew 22:36-40 ““Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.””

(Story of David and Bethseba 2 Samuel 12

Story of Jesus restoring Peter in John 21

Who checks on your head and heart? (Person of accountability. Talk about Charles.)

Do you allow people to get close to the darkest areas of your life?

“Beloved friend, I pray that you are prospering in every way and that you continually enjoy good health, just as your soul is prospering.”
