Psalm 119:20
Man, I wish I could say that verse with my whole heart without hesitance. It's so often that my sinful desires blind me from wanting to be fed from the Word. I know I need it, but at the same time there's that other voice in my head that says, "It's okay, you don't really need this right now." BLAH. There are so many areas in my life that display my lack of longing for the Word and the lack of loving the Lord as I should be. My consistent readings have been turning into these meaningless rituals. Yet as Christians, we are commanded to love the Lord our God with all of our heart, soul and mind, that is with anything and everything that we do. GAh. I suck big time.
Jesus, help my unbelief. Pierce my heart with Your Word. Renew my soul with Your Spirit...
Praise God for the gift of salvation! Praise Him who is merciful and gracious to sinners! :]
I concur, that's why I'm really critical about singing songs that say that (absolute indicatives), cuz those are also our prayers when we sing worship, and i can't sing things that say "i offer up EVERYTHING" or "every heartbeat" or etc... it's okay to ask for it, but i can't honestly say that i do, as much as i desire to
