The Whole Thing
In seeking to know God more and understand who He is, I realized that wholeness is important to God. We can have as much of God as we want. He holds nothing back from us. God has given all of Himself to us and He wants all of us in return.
You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.
Deut. 6:5 NKJ
God does not want just parts of us. He wants all of our heart, all of our mind, all of our strength and all of our love. He also wants all of our weaknesses, all of our sin, all of our shame, all of our secrets, and all of our failures. God wants to be included in every aspect of our lives to include the setbacks and the successes.
God desires the whole of our lives in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, all the days of our lives. He won't push His way in but will patiently and lovingly wait for us to acknowledge Him and our need of Him.
Our covenant with God is a permanent, full access, exchange and interchange of who we are and who He is.
God wants the whole you. Share yourself completely with Him. Tell Him your dreams, your goals, and your hurts. Be absolutely honest. God wants all of you, the whole thing.
Hold nothing back from God because He holds nothing back from you.
