What does God need from us?
nothing.
What does He want from us?
does He want our praise? does He want our time? does He want our '90 minutes a week'? does He want our money? does He want our things?
the answer to theses and a thousand other questions just like them can only be a 'YES' if it is as a part of His wanting our all.
Otherwise, He doesn't want any of it. He certainly doesn't need it.
We read that faith without works is dead in James' letter.
..but in what we like to call the 'love chapter' of the Bible, Paul clearly states that works (and faith, for that matter) without the heart is equally useless.
He wants our heart... period. If He has that, He has everything we have to offer.
Blessings!

Isn't it amazing. Nothing do we have to give, show or do! Just by turning our heart over to Him, he has what he wants. Freedom in living in Christ is so awesome. No more expectations, no more guilt. I am crucified with Christ never the less I live yet not I but Christ lives in me. Praise God!!!
