…We too might walk habitually in newness of life [abandoning our old ways].
I believe one of the most freeing things you can do as a Christian is to abandon yourself to God, letting go of trying to control your life and circumstances and trusting Him with everything.
Abandonment is forgetting the past entirely, leaving the future in God’s hands, and being totally at peace with the present, knowing that you are in God’s perfect will for you for that moment.
Watchman Nee, a martyr for Christ, died with this note under his pillow: “Christ is the Son of God. He died to atone for men’s sin, and after three days rose again. This is the most important fact in the universe. I die believing in Christ.”
Prayer of the Day: Lord, help me completely let go and abandon myself to You. And help me to trust You one hundred percent with my past, present, and future, amen.
