day no. 14,411: need to need

Psalm 50
God has not been unclear about what He requires. He wants a sacrificial heart. Does that heart bring the blood of bulls and goats? Yes. Why? God said so. But what God requires and delights in is the heart that desires to do whatever God requires. God sees the gratitude or the attitude and He knows the difference. God doesn't need anything from us - nothing at all.  But He knows that we need to need Him. The aim of all things is to give glory to God. So it is in our best interest to give our first and best to Him. He could not command less and continue to love us. It would be sin for Him to require and command less.
