SURRENDERING OUR WILL=TO GOD

 

SURRENDERING OUR WILL=TO GOD

 

SURRENDER=is such an UGLY WORD=for

Most of us=it used to be=FOR ME TOO

 

But I have to tell you=THE TRUTH=it wasn’t

UNTIL I SURRENDERED my life to God=and

AL of you=that GOOD things began to

HAPPEN for me=SURRENDERING our faith to God

MATURE FAITH=is found in

SURRENDERING OUR WILL=TO OUR GOD

 

“Today=you are making this agreement=with the Lord=

He is to be Your God=and you are to=

Walk in his ways……”                                                                                                                Deuteronomy 26:18

 

As we get OLDER=as we go from teenagers

To young adults=we like our INDEPENDENCE=we

Like to GO our own ways

 

And sometimes=we even=SEPARATE OURSELVES

From God=I did this myself for a few years=when I was

A late teenager=and in my early twenties

 

But we work ourselves=OUR WAYS=Back to our God

We become=MATURE in our faith=and we GIVE

Our independence back to God

 

We REALIZE=we are in control=OF NOTHING

Especially life and death=as I found out

On my Death bed=when I was 22=SURRENDING

OUR WILL=To God=surrendering our LIVES=back to God

 

We need to=BECOME MATURE CHRISTIANS!=and

LEAN on God=for our lives=and the DIRECTION

That they go

 

“……..Until we all reach=unity in

The faith=and in the knowledge=of the Son of God

AND BECOME MATURE=attaining to the whole measure

Of the fullness of Christ”                                                                                                            Ephesians 4:13

 

“All of us then=WHO ARE MATURE=should take

Such a view of things=and if on some point=you

Think differently=that too=God

Will make clear to you”                                                                                                            Philippians 3:15

 

And isn’t that the truth=so MANY of us

THINK we know better than everyone else=so many

Of us=even think we know=BETTER THAN GOD Himself

 

But when we become Mature Christians=we

SURRENDER OUR WILL=and our faith and

OUR LIVES=over to God=because we KNOW

God knows better=SURENDERING OUR WILLS

Over to the Holy Father God

 

Becoming mature in OUR FAITH=in God

And Jesus Christ=by

SURRENDERING OUR WILLS=TO GOD

 

“But solid food=is for the MATURE=who by

Constant use=have trained themselves=to

Distinguish good from evil”                                                                                                 Hebrews 5:14

 

“Let perseverance=finish its work=so that

You=MAY BE MATURE=and complete=not

Lacking anything”                                                                                                                        James 1:4

 

We become MATURE human beings=when

WE REALIZE=we don’t know everything=We become

Mature Christians=when we realize God has a BETTER PLAN

For our lives=than we have for ourselves

 

Mature faith=mature human beings

SURRENDER THEIR WILLS=TO GOD=who know us

MUCH BETTER=than we know ourselves

 

SURRENDERING our lives to the Holy Father God=and to his Son Jesus Christ=IN

The name of the ALL LOVING LORD!
