We need to keep our hearts full of a sense of the love of God. That is the greatest preservative available to us against the power of temptation in the world … When the love of Christ constrains us to live for him, then we can withstand temptation. Therefore, fill your heart with a sense of the love of God in Christ, and apply the eternal design of his grace and shed blood to yourselves. Accept all the privileges of adoption, justification and acceptance with God. Fill your heart with thoughts of the beauty of holiness, as designed by God and made effective by his death. -John Owen, Gospel Change
