I feel as if my life is at a cross roads, or maybe a better way to say it would be, I feel like I'm on a ledge. On one side is a life that is comfortable, a nice house, nice car (Cadillac), a nice truck, a nice school for my daughter, nice things for my wife!!! I LIVE THE PERFECT LIFE !!!! I can buy what I want, when I want it. The other side of the ledge is Christ and his fullness, And its all I want, but its the one thing I do not have. I have a choice to make now and it determines the direction and path of the rest of my life. Fall back into the life that makes sense to me, and my friends and family, (sense of security), and ease. Or fall into the life God has called me to. Fall into his fullness TRUST HIM WITH MY LIFE! My wife's life, my daughters life. Give Him the reins and just obey Him. say(" HERE I AM LORD SEND ME" Isaiah 6:8) . My Lord died for me. He gave himself up for my freedom and life. Now he is calling me to do the same. I trust you with my life Lord. Here my family goes. Mark 8:36

ReplyDeleteWhat I see in myself and my missions colleagues instead of walking closely with Christ is a fair amount of anxiety, of frantic attempts to fill in the knowledge gaps Jesus intentionally left. We still want to serve him well, and we fear that unless we know the details and grasp the controls of the process, we will fail him. Yet, the truth is the opposite. The more we try to fill in the knowledge gap that he left , the farther we risk missing the mark of his intention for us.
