Whole-Hearted

"They who are willfully contrary in heart are extremely disgusting and shamefully vile in the eyes of the Lord, but such as are blameless and wholehearted in their ways are his delight!"
Proverbs 11:20 (Amp)


The King James version says "upright" in heart. The Amplified says "blameless and wholehearted".

God desires that we are whole hearted in living for him. There are many times when I have become half-hearted in my walk with the Lord, and the Lord desires that I put my whole heart into serving Him.

Lots of times I find it easy to become distracted by many things, and usually they are not "sinful" things; but little by little as they take root in my heart I find myself being half-hearted in my devotion to the Lord.

Let's give ourselves whole-heartedly to serving and living for the Lord.

prayer:
Lord Jesus may I be whole hearted in serving You. Not letting anything or anyone take the place of my devotion to You. I love you Lord, in Jesus Name. Amen.
