The word's used in BVOV Ministries' partner-letter I share in the post linked-to through "that word" below.
What I show here is 'the group of words' that give "that word" a place to connect to your vocabulary ... deeper sources that firm the foundation upon which our lexicon stands ...
The word “Mindful” (Having Knowledge, Remembrance, Recognition; taking Thought or Care, Heedful) is built on ancient words that mean Mind + the suffix -ful.
The suffix "-ful" (attached to nouns & verb-stems, meaning Full of, Having, Characterized by, Amount- or Volume Contained in) is built on ancient syllables that mean Full of x, Causing x, Full of |Occasion for x.
The word "Full" is built on ancient words that mean "to Fill."
The word "Fill" is built on ancient words that mean ... ultimately, "|Fullness"; but it's related to Feast, Satiety, |Fully Supplied.
You can see I've already 'done' the word "Mind," so you might wonder why I didn't just link 'Mindful' to that entry---well, a) for one thing, I hadn't 'done' the word/suffix "Full"; and b) ... I guess I wanted to 'meditate on' (i.e. 'discuss,' but regardless of whether anybody else ever sees it) the word's application.
See, the quoted partner-letter said that it's writer 'hopes he helped us become "even more mindful of the absolute integrety of the written WORD of God."' I suppose it's quite simple what he means---he hopes the letter's readers are 'more fully-convinced & totally sure of The Bible's veracity regarding the proposals & promises made in it.'
