What God's Sayin

So..for the last several days I've been spending a LOT of time praying and asking God for direction and clarity regarding ministry, work, etc. All I've heard for the last week or so is this..."Just keep doing what I put in front of you."

Then, a couple of days ago God impressed on me to give someone something that is very precious, valuable, and usefull to me. I tried to dismiss it by justifying that I need it and if I didn't need it I'd sell it because I really need the money for it. This morning when I started quiet time, I heard God say, "I'm about to provide for you like never before". The sense I had was of great expectation...like the windows of heaven were about to open up. Then God hit me again..."Give it away."

So, God, I hear You. I've confessed to You that everything is Yours anyways...and I surrender this thing...as a symbol of my total surrender to You for Your purpose. And, I surrender our future to You again today. Wherever You lead, I'll go. What You've put in front of me today is not work but a call to obedience. It's Yours. I'm Yours.

Obedience is not for the weak my friend. Great post. I love to find people willing to cash it all in for a bigger purpose.
