Psalm 73:25 - "Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you."
Because God alone is God, and the only one who is truly adorable, He has the right to claim us wholly for Himself. Without an appropriate surrender our part, He cannot manifest His power. As fully as God gives Himself to us, so fully does He desire that we give ourselves to Him.
Ask Him to establish in you His purpose for your life -- entirely committed to God! How wonderful the grace that calls us to it! How blessed the separation from men, and work, and all that might draw us away from God. Totally dedicated to God! How sweet the discovery and of all that it means, and all that God gives us with it!
