Chronicles 28:9 and you, Solomon my son, know the God of your father and serve
him with a whole heart and with a wiling mind, for the LORD searches all hearts
and understands every plan and thought. If you seek him he will be found but if
you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.
“To
serve with a whole heart and a willing mind”…I’ve done that before but I’ve also
done the opposite. I’ve put the same smile on my face as always, and did the
work that I knew I could do. I can fake it pretty good when I have to, however,
that’s not a thing to be proud of. It was not done in secret. Granted those
around me never knew that I had done that, that I was faking my willingness or
my happiness, but God did. God knows the hearts of men and He knows what
motivates us. He will know when my heart is willing or when I am merely just
going through the motions just because, and He will also know the anger that
breeds within me. I tell my children all the time that what they do in secret
is always known to God, perhaps I should remember that myself! He will know
when I am willing or when I am faking.
