“So then, my friends, because of God’s great mercy to us I appeal to you: Offer yourselves as a living sacrifice to God, dedicated to his service and pleasing to him. This is the true worship that you should offer.” Romans 12:1 GNT
Day 10 of 40: Surrender, offering, sacrifice are at the heart of worship. Fear, pride and confusion prevent the surrender that God wants from us.
- Love overcomes fear.
- Humility overcomes pride.
- Obedience overcomes confusion.
I really don’t have to understand what’s going on in my life right now… but I do need to trust in God’s love for me; admit my limitations; and rely on God to work things out.
“Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act.” Psalm 37:7 NLT
This is a recurring theme in my reflections… I think it’s time for me to “sit down and shut up.”
