He wants more than just a casual acquaintance with you, He wants a long-term relationship. God wants all of me, all of you, not just a part. I thought about the many times I had sung love songs to God, only to find myself drifting away in the next breath, and holding onto my life and my selfish desires.
As I listened, I agonised over my natural self, that part of me that needs to be constantly brought under subjection to the will of God and His Holy Spirit that part of me that needs to be tamed.
As the words of this beautiful song washed over my soul, I couldn’t help but examine if this was true in my own life, had I really surrendered all to Him, withholding nothing? Have you really surrendered all to Him, without holding anything back. Listened to William McDowell’s ‘I surrender all to you, withholding nothing’ this morning and was moved to tears.
