Surrendering

Therefore in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone! Let them go! Fo if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourseves fighting against God.
-Acts 5:38 & 39

This is incredible. And it's so true. If anything is of human origin and of human will, then it will fail! But if anything is of God and of His will, then nothing will ever be able to stop it. I love looking in Acts and seeing how faithful the Apostles were. It's incredible to watch how they were persecuted against, yet they remained so faithful and so true to God and His will, and His plan. I want to live a life so foolish for God, that I never have a question or doubt in my mind of what He is capable of doing. I want to live as faithful as the Apostles did, so that those around me can not see who I am, but they can see Christ shining through. I want to live my life for Him in a way that I never have before.

Abba, I surrender. I trade my life, all I have, for all you are. All love and sovereignty is in you, and you alone. For the rest of my life, take this body, and take my entire life, so that I love you first, serve you first, and live for you first. Father you are moving in some incredible ways, and I just know that you have big things planned, and I am so excited to see your plan carried out. Lord, you are incredible. Thank you for giving me this life - this life to live for you.
