In the biblical sense, the word ‘heart’ means more than a bodily organ. It indicates what is present and living in the depths of a person......  The quality of a person depends on the quality of his or her heart.            Cornelius Braun, msc

A new heart and a new spirit

"Return to the heart; see there what you can learn about God, for the image of God is there.

In the interior person dwells Christ; in the interior person you are renewed after God's image...

See how all the senses of the body report to the heart inside what they have perceived outside.... Your heart both sees and hears, and it judges the other sensory data, and what the other senses of the body cannot do, it discerns the just and the unjust, right and wrong."

St Augustine
