2. DEUTERONOMY 6:4-5
Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart
& with all your soul & with all your strength.
These commandments that I give you today
are to be on your hearts.

3. MARK 12:28-29
One of the teachers of the law came & heard them debating.
Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked
Him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most
important?” “The most important one,” answered Jesus,
“is this: „Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart & with all your
soul & with all your mind & with all your strength.
The second is this: „Love your neighbor as yourself.‟
There is no commandment greater than these.”

8. 1 SAMUEL 16:7
But the LORD said to Samuel,
“Do not consider his appearance or his height,
for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look
at the things people look at. People look at the
outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”

9. DEUTERONOMY 4:27-30
The Lord will scatter you among the peoples, & only a few
of you will survive among the nations to which the Lord will
drive you. There you will worship man-made gods of wood
& stone, which cannot see or hear or eat or smell.
But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find
Him if you seek Him with all your heart & with all your soul.

10. EZEKIEL 36:24-28
For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you
from all the countries & bring you back into your own land.
I will sprinkle clean water on you, & you will be clean;
I will cleanse you from all your impurities & from all your idols.
I will give you a new heart & put a new spirit in you;
I will remove from you your heart of stone & give you
a heart of flesh. And I will put My Spirit in you & move you
to follow My decrees & be careful to keep My laws.
Then you will live in the land I gave your ancestors;
you will be My people, & I will be your God.

11. PROVERBS 4:20-23
My son, pay attention to what I say;
turn your ear to my words.
Do not let them out of your sight,
keep them within your heart;
for they are life to those who find them
& health to one‟s whole body.
Above all else, guard your heart,
for everything you do flows from it.
