I began to sing (my humble attempt ) "... my life is not my own, to You I belong, I give myself, I give myself away ..." . And I began to give everything that makes up myself "away" to Him, one by one.
You must understand something about me. There are things ( wealth, health, more children) and people ( hubbie, daughter, friends, Life Church) that I love , desire and want. Sometimes I love and desire them so much that I can feel they are becoming more important than God. My emotions and intellect forgets Who gave them to me. They forget Who wants me to have them!
So, as I was "giving them away" to Him (because He is worthy and my world is safe in His hands) the Lord led me to receive by faith the very same things I'm "giving away" to Him! I LOVE my Jesus! He loves me so uniquely and perfectly!
FYI : JESUS LOVES YOU so uniquely and perfectly too! I encourage you to trust Him and "give it away" to Him...Mark 10:29-30 The Voice (VOICE) Jesus: 29 That is true. And those who have left their houses, their lands, their parents, or their families for My sake, and for the sake of this good news 30 will receive all of this 100 times greater than they have in this time—houses and farms and brothers, sisters, mothers, and children, along with persecutions—and in the world to come, they will receive eternal life.
