God almighty offers me LIFE!
and all He asks in return is my complete trust and joyful, satisfied surrender. I need a new word to refer to what I think of as “my life” - This thing I’m being asked to hand over is much too insignificant to deserve the title.
from James 1
Every good gift bestowed… is from God.
He calls us to life by His message of truth so that we will show the rest of His creatures His goodness and love.
It is possible to open your eyes and take in the beautiful, perfect truth found in God’s law of liberty and live by it. If you pursue that path and actually do what God has commanded, then you will avoid the many distractions that lead to an amnesia of all true things and you will be blessed.
- the Voice -
Abba, save me from the many, many distractions that cause me to forget for Whom I was made . . . Open my eyes and I'll open my hands - what my flesh considers precious, let me value as rubbish - that I might gain Christ!
