If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. —God
In looking for God in this transition of my life, I realized wholeheartedly isn’t an adjective I’d use to describe my pursuit of hearing a cosmic divine voice.
If it was, Look for me in the morning before you eat your apple I’d be good. Or, Look for me before you ask your husband for more money I’d be golden! [FYI: I have a superpower of praying in nanoseconds before I ask for big things.]
But an unconditional commitment, unstinting devotion, or unreserved enthusiasm as marked by the definition? Sadly, no. Are you? What does seeking him with your whole heart look like?
If we want to be a people who find God, we must seek Him with every ounce in our being.
This sounds really easy but is so stinking hard to do. Now you need to make a checklist of how we can be successful at doing this 🙂 No pressure.
Oooo… yeah I'd love one of those!
you know how to make a girl think, don't you? 🙂 i agree with jacqueline – it sounds easy but giving up myself to put God and His will first is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. It's easy to think about how to wholeheartedly seek after God, but the action part is where I fall flat on my face time and time again!
B,
Thanks for the encouragement to seek Him wholeheartedly. I know in my mind but it doesn't always reach my heart. I often try and take matters into my own hands and get off track with seeking Him in everything I do. If you really stop and think about the word "WHOLEHEARTEDLY", wow, I'm way off track sista! Thank you Jesus for your mercies that are new every morning 🙂 Be Blessed!
PS : Side note, are you ever coming to speak in or around NY?!
Beautiful! What a wonderful reflection! Sometimes I think I search wholeheartedly…sometimes I think I’m not doing well it well enough…sometimes I just stop. But God in His infinite mercy never leaves me, He always pursues me and I go back to searching.
Thank you for this post. Your blog is wonderful and inspirig.
Wow…that'll preach.
Oh. I struggle with this every day!
I need to work on carving out time for my King. He's the lover of my soul, my El Shaddai, and yet I don't pursue Him with reckless abandon. I allow my heart and mind to be content with other people's interpretations of who He really is. And yet, I WOULD NOT be content with loving my (future) husband through anyone else. My priorities are misaligned. The only One who can satisfy me longs to have fellowship with me, with EVERY part of my heart, even the ugly, heinous bits. Why am I not running to Him?
Sorry if I sound preachy. I'm really just yelling at myself. 🙂
Thank you Jaqueline and Heather for being brave enough to ask the question I felt too ashamed to ask. This morning this was my question, How Lord can I seek you, know you, trust you, love you? This led me to realize I don’t seek him enough, I know I don’t know him like I should, I don’t fully trust him and I know i don’t love him like I should… but I want to
this is what I want wholehaertedly, but fail miserably every second of the day..Andrea said it like it is for me…knowing it in my mind, but it not reaching my heart…thanks for the inspiring and motivating post…and yes please can u make a list?:)
Wow… this got me thinking… do I do ANYTHING wholeheartedly? Like really. WHOLE heartedly…. I don't know… I'm gonna have to think about that. What would that look like?
Not giving up until you find Him – perseverance; knowing without a doubt that you will find Him and He wants to be found by you- faith; selflessly seeking Him for who He is and not what He can do for you – love; giving in to His will to be found when He wants to be found – obedience… that is what I believe it looks like to wholeheartedly seek Him. How to do that, read His word. Am I doing/possessing these things, I honestly believe I am, but sometimes I falter and have to get back on track. I've never been and never will be perfect. Luckily He loves me still! =)
Mmmm… WHOLEheartedly… what comes to mind when I read this is that God wants ALL of me, He loves it when I reveal every area of my heart to Him so that he can fill it with His love. It makes me realize that God wants to be in everything- every part of my day, every conversation, every little thing… He is there. As I hold nothing back from Him, I learn His character and become more like Him… Thanks for sharing this little verse today Bianca!
I feel like wholeheartedly is something I wake up and reach for again everyday. I think the goal of wholeheartedly seeking the Lord helps keep me present and accountable for my actions. For me if I’m not wholeheartedly seeking and obeying then my heart begins to foster rebellion. Only serving and obeying completely can dispel that rebellious nature. There is so much joy in wholeheartedly seeking the Lord and obeying Him, yet it is still a daily struggle; a commitment that must be renewed every morning.
