Psalm 40:7,17
Sacrifice and offering you do not want; but ears open to obedience you gave me. But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you.
Making sacrifices and giving things up are in and of themselves pointless unless the outcome is that we become freer to seek God. God does not need our sacrifices. They do not make God love us more. What God yearns for is our hearts! The God of the universe is in love with you and longs for a relationship with you. May you put aside all the things that you think will satisfy your deepest longings…and pursue the only One who can.
