Give me rest oh Gracious God. Teach me your ways. Teach me how to live and how to Love the way you intended for me to. I love your presence oh God. Hear me, Teach me how to be SELFLESS, how to be a disciple. The scriptures say, "if anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me."
FOLLOW- to travel behind, go after, come after.
-travel along certain course.
*-comply; act in accordance with someones rules, commands, or wishes.
-come after in time as a result.
*-take after; imitate in behavior, take as a model, Trace, or to shadow someone.
We cannot be followers of Christ, we cannot Love Christ, unless we Deny ourselves of our desires, wants, etc. If it does not please God it should not please us. I'm learning each day how to say NO to myself, it isn't easy. But to know that God is pleased makes it easier to handle. Each day my desires are becoming less of a distraction, less of a pain, and everyday I become more like Christ, I conform into His image each time I say NO to self... Be encouraged; it is possible :)
