“MAINTENANCE REQUIRED!”
FOUR THINGS YOU AS YOU WALK YOUR DISCIPLE’S PATHWAY
Mark 12: 29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”
YOUR HEART… “with all your heart…”

Proverbs 4: 23

Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
PRAY WITHOUT … “with all your soul…”
