Give Me Your Heart

Proverbs 23:26 My son, give me thine heart and let thine eyes observe my ways.
God wants our hearts because He loves us and wants us to love Him and know Him. Our riches, our strengths, our wisdom, our greatness or power mean nothing to Him. He simply wants our hearts so he can mold us in His image.
Why would anybody refuse the request of the great omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent God.
To serve God without giving the heart is fraud. To give wealth without giving the heart is abomination. To pray without giving the heart is mockery. To sing of Him without giving the heart is as a sounding brass and tinkling cymbal. To work for Him without giving the heart is insult. To preach without giving the heart is hypocrisy.
Psalm 139:23,24 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
