Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’
God is a very jealous lover. He is your creator, your Father, your Friend, and your ______? He is to you everything you need him to be. That's why his first name is, "I am". You just need to fill in the last name.
Are you sick? Than he is your healer. Are you tired; let him be your strength. Do you fear; he longs to be your comforter. God is everything we need and he desires to be all that we want.
As you ask God to search your heart today, begin assessing your 'go to' mode in a time of stress.
Do you talk to friends- than learn to talk to God instead. Others have become your god.
Do you keep your emotions and issues bottled up-than ask God to help you humble yourself and open up to him and others. Pride has become a god to you.
When you are afraid do you worry or trust in God?
When stress comes do you have a drink, smoke a few cigarettes or turn to another addiction for comfort? It is your god.
God wants all of you. He longs to be the 'Great I am ____' in your life. And in the blank he wants to put the words 'your everything!'
It is a process. It is painful and will require hard work and endurance, but when you reach the point that you know he's your everything you will be so strong, confident, and beautiful that you won't recognize the gal you were before! Let go and seek to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength!
