Pride And RebellionНамуна

I don't want to live a heavy life, carrying around weights and burdens that I was never intended to carry. Doing so would make the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ of none effect. Why take on all of our sins at the cross if we were going to rebel and pick them all up again? I aim not to disrespect the sacrifice of Christ.

I'm ready to receive the promise of rest, knowing that it doesn't mean that I'll never have problems in this world. However, the problems I do have won't be as a result of my pride, arrogance, unbelief and disobedience. As scary as it may be at the moment, I'm just gonna close my eyes and follow Him. It may not be easy, it may kill your flesh and destroy your pride. But what do we have to lose? We have to know our God and if we're not in a place of trust, tell Him. I promise you that He won't be offended. Open your heart and your mouth and lay it all on the line. He desires to draw us to and through Him to the best parts of Himself. Trust me when I say that we have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
