"I would that ye should come unto Christ... come unto him and offer your whole souls as an offering unto him, and continue in fasting and praying, and endure to the end; and as the Lord liveth ye will be saved."
A half-hearted offering is not enough for the Lord. We need to follow him all the way with full purpose of heart. We can't be sitting on the fence with one foot in the world and one foot in the Kingdom of God. Even as I write this I'm listening to the tabernacle choir sing one of my favorite songs, "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing" which expresses the same idea. One verse says, "here's my heart, Oh take and seal its seal it for thy courts above." It is my prayer that we will all try harder to offer our whole souls to the Lord.
