Take My Life

Leave outcomes up to Me. Follow Me wherever I lead, without worrying about how it will all turn out. Think of your life as an adventure, with Me as your Guide and Companion. Live in the now, concentrating on staying in step with Me. When our path leads to a cliff, be willing to climb it with My help.When we come to a resting place, take time to be refreshed in My Presence. Enjoy the rhythm of life lived close to Me.

You already know the ultimate destination of your journey: your entrance into heaven. So keep your focus on the path just before you, leaving outcomes up to Me.
I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.- PSALM 27:13–14
“In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling.”- EXODUS 15:13

We as believers in Christ must offer up our lives to give it all to God. We must be willing to give up our plans for His. I have recently pictured my life journey as a road I am standing on looking down to what my future plans are. I am constantly focused  on the future, when I really need to let God take control. I have imagined a fog covering the "road I have laid for myself" and then God taking my hand leading me through, when I cannot see. I have come to the realization that this life I live is all for God. My plans do not matter, I need to give my life all for His glory. My life is His life. I want Him to lead me where He wants me to go, so that I may help further His kingdom and bring all of those that I love along with me.

I tell you, God works in mysterious ways. I had these thoughts last night and to wake up this morning and read this passage saying that He is ready for me to relinquish my control, it is just amazing how He sends us messages when we least expect it.

Today I want Him to "Take my life, and let it be, all for You and for Your glory. Take my life and let it be Yours".

I hope that you do the same because God is ready to take us on an awesome life journey if we let Him.
