Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart to revere your name. I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name for ever. For great is your steadfast love towards me; you have delivered my soul from the depths. (Psalm 86: 11-13)
Attention, focus, and commitment are needed for achievement in many areas of life: sports, business, marriage, and more.
Give me an undivided heart. The Hebrew is yachad. Join, unite, make whole my true self.
I will give thanks with my whole heart. The Hebrew is kol. This is derived from kalal meaning to complete or make perfect.
Too often we are uncertain and unfocused. Too often our motivations are mixed. Oh God, please make me whole.
Make whole my true self. Make whole my heart. Bring me into your shalom.
