"If you accept my words and store up my commands within you,
turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding —
indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding,
and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure,
then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God. Proverbs 2:1-5
God requires our whole heart and focus, but why? C. S. Lewis explains:
God cannot bless us, unless he has us. When we try to keep within us an area that is our own, we try to keep an area of death. Therefore, in love, God claims all. There’s no bargaining with him.
