Wholehearted
It’s 2AM at night and even though it’s quite past my bed time, I was once again compelled to write a letter of blessings in my special journal until this song caught my attention.
Lord I want to be wholehearted
God I want to be wholehearted
God I want to be wholehearted
In my love for You
In my love for You
Lord I want to love what You love
And I want to hate what You hate
You know I want to be closer to You
Declare Your name
Declare Your name
In this time of confusion and struggle between my flesh and my commitment.. God gently reveals my heart. God reveals how weak I am but He also reveals my desire to fulfill the promise and to just please Him.
God, I am struggling with this promise not because I want to seem a certain way to others.
Rather, God, I am struggling because I want to give You all of my heart. That was what I promised and that is what I am going to keep.
Lord, I often fail to keep my words and promises..
But Lord, You are the only being I am using every strength possible to not give up and keep my words to.
I want to give you all of my heart. Every inch of it.
I want to give you all of my attention. Every thought.
Sometimes I worry that things won’t fall into place the way I want, but again I am reminded of Your sovereignty.
And quite frankly, You, my Lord, You, this relationship is too precious for me to give up. Who knows where I will be in a year with You? Who knows.. and it’s such an exciting thought.
So God, this is my prayer.
Lord help me to be wholehearted to You.
Let my love for You to never run dry.
Let me be faithful to You like You have been to me..
