Not one-fourth.
Not one-half.
Not three-quarters.
Not even 99.9%.
The WHOLE of me.
This is what you desire, Abba Father. You know until I am wholly yours, I will never be truly whole. And yet, I hold back. I withhold. I come close to surrendering, but never surrendered.
Wholly yours. Mind, body, soul.
Wholly yours. The good, the bad, the ugly.
Wholly yours. Redeemed. Restored. Re-created.
This is the cry of my heart.
100%.
Lost in you.
Found in you.
One of one.
Complete.

Visiting from the 5 Minute Friday. Wow, this is an amazing post and also the cry of my heart, to be wholly His!
ReplyDeleteI love this post, so beautiful and so true. May I give to him that 0.1% I tend to hold back at times! Happy 5 Minute Friday!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! To be 100% "lost in You" and "found in You". Love that. Wonderful Five minute post! And, how neat that we were both led to write with a math analogy. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it is the cry of my heart, too. I know just what you mean by coming close to surrendering, but not surrendered. Lovely post.
ReplyDeleteWholly surrendered. So thankful for this reminder. I tend to think I need to be wholly burned out or wholly altogether or wholly perfected already. But he just wants ALL of me, right where I am.
ReplyDeleteOh to be wholly His it is my heart's desire. Love your 5 minute words today. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLost and found in Him...at the same time...love that!
