What is a life that proves love for its Maker?

with my heart - cultivating a love for Him and a value for all the things He values

with my soul - nourishing it daily with Truth from His words, seeing them as they are: my "life"!

with my strength - pursuing a healthy and balanced lifestyle; not growing idle (Prov 31), but keeping active and in order

with my mind - making the choice to "set" my mind on "things of above", all that is good, true, pleasing, and lovely; to "fix" my eyes on Jesus rather than myself or the world, wearing the hope of salvation as a helmet over it (1 Thess 5)

Charles Spurgeon, on 2 Timothy 1:9... "Those whom the Saviour saved on the cross are in due time effectively called by the power of God the Holy Spirit to holiness. They leave their sins, and they endeavor to be like Christ. They choose holiness, not out of any compulsion, but from the influence of a new nature, which leads them to     rejoice in holiness       just as naturally    as before they delighted in sin. God neither chose them nor called them because they were holy, but He called them so that they might be holy, and holiness is the beauty produced by His workmanship in them. The Christlike qualities that we see in a believer are as much the work of God as the Atonement itself.  Thus the fullness of the grace of God is brought out very sweetly... The believer's privilege is a present salvation; the evidence that he is called to it is his holy life."
