Wholeheartedly

Just one more piece to the puzzle...and it will be complete!

Do you think anybody ever gets there in life?  The point where you fill full?  You are satisfied?  You are complete?

Reading this morning the reading from Joshua 12 - 14, I was taken with Caleb.  Remember, Caleb the man who was sent to explore Canaan, who came back gave an honest report and believed?  Well, he reappears in this morning's reading asking for the completion of the Lord's Promise to him.  It's not this part that caught my attention so much as these words did ~ because he wholeheartedly followed the LORD, the God of Israel.  What does that look like to you?

I was intrigued.  After all, what does that mean...so I went to the original word and found the meaning.  Well, it means to fill, to be full, to complete, satisfied.  Now Caleb wasn't filled with satisfaction with anything other than God.  

Do we know what this looks like in today's world?  Do you think we are able to even fathom what this looks like?  Truly, I am pondering the question about being wholeheartedly following the LORD.  What do you think this looks like?  

Caleb is a role model.  Yes, he lived in another time and place, but he knew what matter...The LORD.  Do we truly realize what matters?

Wholeheartedly...a word to ponder today.  The final piece to the puzzle?  Perhaps, I don't think it's perhaps...it is what matters!

Sweet blessings,
