SACRIFICE....it has to happen in order to grow.
Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." ~Matthew 16:24~
you can't give god only half of your life. god has called you to live for him and you can't hold onto part of that. God has really shown me that. and i really struggled with giving him my whole life. But wow, now that i have, i am more in love Christ than I have ever been. My relationship with God is better than it has ever been. And it took my giving up so many things that was blocking my walk and so many things that i wanted to fix myself and so many things that i wanted to tackle and things that i didn't want to give up because i wanted the control. but now that ive given it up...wow it is such a difference. and im continuing to grow every day...and i love it. i dunno i just felt like i should share that...dont know why but hoprefully someone will get something out of it.. who knows..i love you guys!!
