All Right Now!
Now, O Israel, what does the LORD your God ask of you but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to observe the LORD's commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?
Deuteronomy 10:12-13
God loves us so much and yes believe it or not, He wants us to love Him also. We show our love to Him by our deep devotion to His Word, not just an occasional reading, but actually doing what the Word says, or rather, living the Word. God loves us and always has our best interest at heart, it's just that sometimes I think we forget that.
Now these two verses may seem like God is asking a whole lot from us, but is he really? And for many it's that three letter word that scares people the most. It's that three letter word that the "inner-me" in most of us convinces us back to failure because anything without God is an automatic failure as far as I'm concerned. God wants our all. 99½ won't do.
Doesn't God deserve your/our 100% , to walk in all his ways, to love and serve Him with "all your heart and all your soul?" We bring joy to God's heart not by our lip service, but by our life service. Well, I don't know about you, but God wants my all and I am more than happy to give Him my all. Now that doesn't mean that I don't make mistakes, and that I don't fall short of the mark because I do. Yet even though my all may be tattered, and filled with holes, I know that God's knows my heart, and accepts my all because of the shed blood of Jesus Christ, His only begotten on. Are you prepared to give God your All right now?''
