Trust Him! Trust Him to work in you both to will and to do His good pleasure.

This is exciting stuff! This is life's real adventure! Through His Word and His spiritual presence, may we come to know Him as He wants to be known. May we see things more from His perspective and less from our own.

I Choose Death (revised)


There. That got your attention. Now let me explain what it means when I say "I choose death." 

You might guess I'm talking about becoming less self-oriented and more Christ-oriented.

That would be a good guess. Jesus spoke repeatedly to His disciples that they must die to living for themselves and instead live for Him. Matthew 16:24 and Mark 8:34 are good examples. That is the subject of many sermons, and rightfully so, but that's not the kind of death I'm talking about today.

This is.
