“O And O” Or “H and H”
“With my whole heart have I sought Thee”
(Psalm 119:10).
A few years ago, a young Christian who traveled extensively on business had to go to an area of the world where he had never been before. He was an earnest and devoted believer and served the Lord wherever he went in his own quiet way. Knowing another young Christian who was well acquainted with the district into which he was going, he asked him if he would give him some names and addresses of the Lord’s people in those parts. This his friend gladly did. However, when the list came, the traveler was puzzled at seeing either “O and O” or “H and H” opposite each name. When he enquired as to what it meant, he was told, “Some are only ‘Half and Half’ Christians, and some are ‘Out and Out’ ones. I put those marks by their names to distinguish them.”
If our names were on that list, what kind of Christian would we be listed as? Would we be listed as “O and O,” or would it have to be “H and H”? Could it be said that we “wholly followed the Lord” (Numbers 32:12)?
