Wrecked

I had an opportunity to spend some quality time with a friend that I often look to in life for answers about everything and anything. What usually happens, as did during this encounter, I leave with more questions about God, myself, my life, and my community (which is a great thing). I left this encounter with a specific question: Am I eliminating every excuse for not living a radical love-motivated life in response to God's passionate love for me? The easy answer is no. Want my excuses? I have a family. I have a job. Am I not already doing enough? I'm sick (ha! In more ways than one). These worldly excuse are starting to fade and my relationship with Christ is starting to gain momentum. Maybe not abruptly, maybe with some reluctance, definitely with some fear, but undoubtedly with trust in God. Turning over control to God is something that I will struggle with forever, but I believe in His Word and I desperately want to be led by the Holy Spirit!
