Day 21
With all the Gospel songs out there I admit they don’t all resonate with my spirit though they are beautifully written and sung
I find that songs like ‘I give myself away and Lord I surrender all ‘ only make me stop in my tracks to question myself because truth be told I still have not given myself completely over to God and I have not surrendered all to Him either, for those who have successfully achieved this cudos to you all for that is indeed an excellent achievement
You see for me to say I have surrendered all I would be saying that I have been completely emptied of me and the Spirit of God flows freely through me without any inhibitions, but that’s not entirely true, I have also not put Him Over all else because there are moments when I choose what I desire over what He requires
Do I yearn to be at a place where He comes first? Of course I do and this is why I make it my duty to daily pray to Him asking that His will be done daily in my life, and also that He orders my step and direct me so that what I do and say is pleasing to Him. God holds me together and His faithfulness remains when I am faithless, this gives me hope that I will indeed get to that place of total surrender daily and I understand that it’s also a process
The good thing all about all this is that on my walk God is willing and available to take it with me so as I commit He continues to build and that is more than enough for me
Here in marks the end of my chronicling my narrow walk but it in no way means the journey is over, As I continue on I pray that you too will begin and or continue in your own journey and on that walk I pray you success
I am Ineke Murray and I continue to journey with God
