Life of the heart is a place of great mystery:
  • Person without compassion = heartless
  • We urge them to "have a heart"
  • Our deepest hearts are "heartaches"
  • Unsettled lovers are "brokenhearted"
  • Courageous soldiers are "brave hearted"
  • Truly evil are "black-hearted"
  • To be on an intimate level, we need at "heart-to-heart"
  • When we are unburdened, we are "lighthearted"
  • During apathy, "our heart is not in it"
  • We are to love God with all of our heart - Mark 12:30

Without the heart, life is not worth living - it is the wellspring of life

To lose heart is to lose everything
Our lives are filled with busyness, making living merely a way to survive

We need to return to a child-like heart where not everything can be explained


Key Phrase: Without the heart, life is not worth living
