Human beings are creatures whose hearts, like nature, detest a vacuum, and so to expel the sin and selfishness in our hearts, we must fill them with something that is better and more satisfying - namely, Jesus Christ.

A desire is a hunger, a craving, a preoccupation, and an internal aim for an external conquest. A desire, when broken down to one word, is a wish. No one has ever taught us how to desire. You can accomplish desire without practicing. Sickness and even old age do not diminish desire; they just change what we desire. To stop desiring we would have to be in a complete vegetative or meditative state, and even then we would have to desire not to desire.

That it consists in changing his mind, or disposition, in regard to the supreme object of pursuit. A change in the end at which he aims, and not merely in the means of obtaining his end. A change in the governing choice or preference of the mind.
