To Seek The Lord...

One of the hardest things I've been dealing with lately is seeking the Lord with an honest heart. Trying to follow Him because I want to and long to, and not because I need to. We are called to rejoice in God in the good and in the bad (Romans 12:12). God doesn't want someone who is giving half their heart. He wants ALL of my heart. I can't say that I don't know how to give it to Him because I do, it's written all over the Bible. My problem lies with the fact that I only choose to follow sometimes (mostly the good). God wants me to cry out to Him on a daily basis. Why don't I let Him take control? My life would be so much more simple.

Christ wants my heart. Whether I be in Kansas, Iowa, Turkey, China, or Africa- God wants my heart... ALL of it.
