What Are You Holding On To?

Our God will use pain to teach us how to stop being so rational with our decisions. It’s hard sometimes when you will act in a way to someone in an Ungodly manner but don't understand why you keep doing it. You know how to treat someone in the way you act to God but don't always act that way to others. It can be an old habit. If you don't feel totally surrendered, you can be totally self centered.

I’ve learned that I put myself into this position of deciding what I want to do. It was a selfish decision I thought would be best for me. I was naive in thinking I could follow in the footsteps of someone else instead of following God’s plan for me.

The wisest thing you could say to God to whatever you’re holding on to is to tell Him that you want the best He wants to give you. What are you willing to hold on to in the expense to God’s loving best? It’s not worth it.

Father, it’s my life, you can have whatever. If it is some relationship, some possession, some position, or reputation, here am I, Lord, and I want you to have me. I may be a little late, but I’m coming God, let me know your ways. Lord, have me, make the best for me. I don’t want to live wishing I had to make that decision years ago to surrender myself to you when it is too late. O’ God I hope that anyone who hasn’t surrendered themselves to you that they find a way to find you and fill their heart with your love and life.

My Prayer to everyone who isn't Christian or is a Christian just struggling to find God,
Open your hands, your heart, and your life. Let Him put to death the destruction and obstruction of the will and plan of God in your life. When your flesh has let up and it’s time to go to Him, He will be there to remind you to say, yes Lord, here am I, take me Lord. And, we ask this in Jesus name. Amen!
