With my whole heart I have sought You; oh, let me not wander from Your commandments! Psalm 119:10
Do you read your Bible with your head or with your heart? Head knowledge provides information about what God wants, but heart knowledge inspires to serve Him.
God alone sees your heart, and your heart alone can see God. When your heart cries out to God for His guidance and wisdom, God answers. Our own free will often urges us to stray. If you give your whole heart to God, holding nothing back of your own, then you will not want to stray.
Not only must we seek out the hidden treasure, but we must take the treasure and hide it in our hearts. When you read God’s Word, according to Proverbs 2:10, “…wisdom enters your heart, and knowledge is pleasant to your soul.”
If you seek God with your whole heart, with everything you have and are, then He will be there to strengthen and guide you. He will help you to obey His commands; He will lead you on the righteous path.
Lord, give me a heart that seeks only You.
