You'll Never Know The True Power Of Love Until You

[Zulu]

We can only find fullness of faith when we are willing to yield our pride & our own will to the Lord. Like Jesus said in the Garden, "If it be possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Thine be done!" (Mat.26:39) He has to have our cooperation. Submission is the first step. If we are unwilling to take that step, we won't be able to go to other steps! We have to make the decision. He'll do everything else for us--give us strength, wisdom, life & love. All that He asks is for us to commit ourselves. He likes for us to freely choose & yield to Him because we love Him.

Total love gives all! But if we give our all to Him, He gives His all to us! You can have peace & power that you've never known before--with Jesus--if you'll just let Him control your life. Have faith in God's Love & yield yourself to Him in submission & humility & let Him empower you!

"Deep abiding joy fills all my life today!
There is a secret reason why I love to pray!
There is an inner Wellspring deep within my soul:
Jesus, precious Jesus, has at last Complete control!"

It can seem so difficult to wholly commit but how could we not. We give our whole to the most loving, wise and perfect being who created us and knows all about us. Our future, past, thoughts, feelings and even every working part of our bodies. How and why we don't find that the easiest thing to do is crazy when you think about it... But with a wobble, we panic, lose trust and think we need to find or attempt to exercise control.

How great we could be for God with that child-like trust.
