“Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.”
1 Peter 5:6 NIV
We made a commitment to each other around Christmas time to let every prayer we pray be drenched with radical honesty. We've recognized that it's easy to go day to day in the same vein and prayer without much thought to "the more" God could be , probably is calling us to.
We must crucify our self indulgent ways and surrender all to Jesus if we are to live in peace with Him.
Obedience = Peace
It's easy to hate on ourselves in the midst of this troubled world, but there is no growth without pain and no integrity without self denial and honest neither one is attractive without the personal love of a Jesus !!
So, be radically honest with where you are right now, stop hating on yourself and be loved. In that love find a place to be free and at peace by obeying God and accepting who you are in Him. He's in love with you, you can trust Him.
