Proverbs 23:26 "My son, give me your heart and let your eyes delight in my ways."

God wants our whole heart turned toward Him. In our earthly mind we find things/people who seem so important to our lives and necessary to complete us. In this passage of Scripture God is reminding us that He wants all of our heart. Only when we give Him our all can we be truly satisfied. Out of a satisfied heart we can serve people unconditionally. When we love others out of the abundance of God's heart it is true and good, holy and right. God draws us to Himself because He is a jealous God, but He also draws us to himself to show us how to truly love others. Human love will fail sooner or later, God's love never fails. His love is patient, kind, longsuffering, endures, never quits. This love is what we long for.
