Sunday morning is one of the most religious days of the week in the United States. Every Sunday, thousands of people scurry to their places of worship. There they pray, sing, fellowship with others, give money, time, talent and more. Some people have done these things all their life because their parents regularly did so, resulting in them doing the same. Others do so later in life because it is the "right thing to do" if one wants to "clean up their life."
He Wants It All - "By Forever Jones"
Although church attendance, and all the things associated with it, are noble and respectable activities, it is possible to do all these activities without truly giving your heart to Jesus. It is easy to fall into a religious trap where all the "activities" of a person who loves Jesus are done without truly giving Jesus what He desires most from us.....OUR HEARTS.
Deuteronomy 6:5 says love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.
Reflect, and ask yourself.... "does Jesus truly have my heart?" Do you anticipate simply being in His presence without wanting anything in return? Do you think about Him often? Do you desire His will for your life above your own? Do you make time to listen to him; to receive direction from Him, or are you the captan of your own life? Are you busy doing things for Jesus and not communing with Him. Remember the story of Mary and Martha? Mary chose what was best...fellowshiping with Jesus instead of working for Jesus.
I encourage you to give Jesus your heart, not your religious activity. Freely give Him your time, your thoughts, your energy, your finance, etc. The truth of the matter is that Jesus can do more with your life than you can do with it on your own. Give Him your heart today, and watch the joyous life fulfilling transformation that will occur in you. You will be amazed! Listen to the song below, and let the words speak to your spirit. Jesus wants your heart.
He Wants It All - "By Forever Jones"
There's a voice that cries out in the silence
Searching for a heart that will love Him
Longing for a child that will give Him their all
Give it all, He wants it all
And there's a God that walks over the earth
He's searching for a heart that is desperate
And longing for a child
That will give Him their all
Give it all, He wants it all
And He says love me, love me with your whole heart
He wants it all today
Serve me, serve me with your life now
He wants it all today
Bow down, let go of your idols
He wants it all today [x3]
He wants it all
And there's a God that walks over the earth
He's searching for a heart that is desperate
Longing for a child that will give Him their all
Give it all, He wants it all
And he says love me, love me with your whole heart
He wants it all today
Serve me, serve me with your life now
He wants it all today
Bow down, let go of your idols
He wants it all today
He wants it all
All of you, more of you
He wants it all today, oh oh oh oh
All of you, more of you
He wants it all today, oh oh oh oh
All of you, more of you
He wants it all today, today, today
He wants it all today [x2]
So give it all
There's a voice that cries out in the silence
Searching for a heart that will love him
Longing for a child that will give him their all
Give it all
He wants it all
