You find that the things you let go of while following Jesus were the things that were going to destroy you in the end.

A key to everything is surrender - to really come before the Lord and say, 'I will literally stay here as long as you want me to stay' or 'God, I will really go anywhere on the earth.'

Do you love this God who is everything, or do you just love everything He gives you?
Francis Chan
Image
I want to live so that I am truly submitted to the Spirit's leading on a daily basis. Christ said its better for us that the Spirit came and I want to live like that is true. I don't want to keep crawling when I have the ability to fly.
