From TSO -- Peter Kreeft writes the following heart-stopping truth:
'God is a lover, not a manager, a businessman, accountant, owner, or puppet-master. What He wants from us first of all is not a technically correct performance but our hearts. Protestants and Catholics alike need to relearn and reemphasize that simple, liberating truth..."We may think God wants actions of a certain kind, but God wants people of a certain sort." [C.S. Lewis]. '
"I have a mustard seed, and I'm not afraid to use it."
Pope Benedict XVI

And somebody tell me how I actually give Him my heart. It's like rubbing your stomach and patting your head and jumping up and down on one foot and reciting poetry, all at once. How do we give Him our heart and talk on the phone at work? How do we give our heart and watch TV on the couch? How do we give and deal with our annoying relative?
In a dark room, in peace, I can find my heart and try and hand it over. But in the world? Eeeeeshh......
