We have a door that half obeys. Sometimes it will open just fine for us, but other times, you'll be stuck inside the room, tugging and pulling with all your might to get the door open. It easily opens on the outside, just not when you're inside the room. It doesn't seem to matter if you pull with all your strength, or with a little bit of your strength, the result is the same--you trapped in the room until you either have the patience to keep trying to open the door, or someone pities you and opens the door for you.
Sometimes, we're stubborn and would prefer to give God only some of our hearts. "Here, He can take this half, this half looks better than the other half", we think. But on the part of our heart that we ourselves are scared to look at, we'd prefer to use a stuck door instead. One that won't open easily. God sees all of us, He knows the worst things we've ever done--we can't hide it from Him. Get rid of your stuck doors, open your heart and give it all to God--He's the One who created your heart in the first place.
