Surrendering All
By Mark Flippo
Proverbs 3:5-6 - Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Philippians 2:12-16 - Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
We talk about surrendering all but do we? Think about yourself and your attitudes. Do other people see Christ in you? Do your coworkers talk about how they admire you for keeping your mouth clean? If you come upon a group and you hear they are telling a dirty joke do you turn around and walk away? Do they respect you enough that before they eat they ask you to pray over the food? If you have a carpool and someone cuts you off in traffic do you swear at them or do you take it in stride and ask God to protect that terrible driver? Do they wait to smoke until they are out of your car? If you have let down on your standards please make time to pray and find your way back to that special place you had before you slipped!
