"I don't want to do this again." Is the common phrase coming out of my mouth lately. I always say, "I will if God calls me, but I don't want to." (Loosely translated: I will do it with a bad attitude and a cold heart, but I'll do it.) I say, "Send me Lord, Call me." "I will do it." "Not my will, Lord, but Yours." But do I mean it? Do I mean ANYTHING You call me to Lord? Or, do I mean, anything that works in my perfect idea of what I want. This placement and possible loss has been a real "heart-opener." I have had to truly examine what I am holding onto where God is concerned. Then this verse:
Jesus replied, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God." Luke 9:62
Need I say more?
