When i was browsing through the Bible today, one word caught my attention. This word is "wholehearted". How often do we worship God whole-heartedly? To be frank, i guess most of the christians only turn to God when they encounter problems, of course, problems which are insurmountable or I rather put it in an easy way by saying that the problems which require higher level of wisdom to put them into resolution. God has been treated as a stepping stone. Shame on us, Christians, who always address ourselves as the children of God. Are we worthy of calling ourselves the children of God if we can not protect what God's purposes for us and His will to be done? How many people would have come to realise that it is God, we are living for? We do not live by our own selves. There will be no human if it was not God's purpose to create human being in this planet. The world will not be as colourful without the living of homosapiens. We should be grateful of God's grace and favour that has poured on us, human.
Praising God with all our hearts means appreciating Him and honouring Him in all areas of life. We need to show our loyalty to Him in every part of our lives, not just in going to church. If we praise God with all our hearts, then our work, relationships, use of money and desires will be in keeping with His will.
Psalm 86:11-13
"Teach me your ways, O Lord, tha tI may live according to your truth! Grant me purity of heart, that I may honour you."
"With all my heart I will praise you, O Lord my God. I will give golry to your name forever, for your love ofr me is great. You have rescued me from the deptys of death!"
