I started this new series called the "Surrendered Life" I knew upfront that this would not be a series that people would stand up and readily embrace, maybe because of my own struggles with it...
Suffice it to say that we all have issues with this, even when it comes to God...no one really wants to embrace His will for their lives...oh I know we say we do, but when it comes to God, talk is cheap...
Listen to something Jesus said...
Matt 7:21 Mess
"Knowing the correct password ,
saying 'Master, Master,' for instance, isn't going to get you anywhere with me.
What is required is serious obedience —
doing what my Father wills."
It doesn't take us long and we learn the lingo. We know how to talk Christian, but do we really know how live our lives for Him? I want to explore this, so many people are just settling, giving up on any real commitment to the cause and the life that God wants them to live.
A lot of people live their lives doing
what they believe God wants them to do...the way they want to do it.
I don't want to live my whole life doing what I believe God wants me to do because I said 'No' to Him somewhere along the way. I'm tired of listening to peoples excuses on why they don't do whatever it is that God asks! Learning to surrender to God and His will for our lives is the smartest thing we can do – running our mouths with nothing to back it up is not.
"Surrender to God."
More to come!
Love ya...
