I can't get over this: "With what shall I come before the LORD and bow down before the exalted God? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." -Micah 6:6-8 "For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings." -Hosea 6:6 "You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise." -Psalm 51:16-17 What does God want? Does he want me to go to church? Does he want me to tithe? Should I take communion? Should I sing? Does he want me to pray? Does he want me to give up sin? No. No. He wants my heart! He wants me know Him. He wants me to love Him and to love others. Is it not obvious? He wants my heart, and the rest will come with it. I will go to church for fellowship and for growth. I will pray because I want to seek Him. And I will give up sin because He wants me to and I love Him. What other God is like Him? |
