About this Quote

In this quote, Angelina Grimke stresses the significance of caring God not just with our hearts, however also with our minds. She thinks that it is a sin to hinder or prevent others from establishing their minds, as it is through this cultivation that they are able to meet their responsibility of caring God totally. Grimke suggests that the mind is just as essential as the heart in our relationship with God, and that we must not neglect its development and understanding. By motivating the growing of the mind in others, we are allowing them to deepen their love for God and fulfill their spiritual obligations.
