Deferring To GodLuke 22: 39-44
A plaque in the museum of Western Expansion recalls the words of a man on a wagon train heading west from St. Louis. He said that in just a few days after the Wagon Train left St. Louis the ‘American Character’ was revealed. The people were quite willing to govern and quite unwilling to be governed.
Becoming a Christian is a matter of surrendering our own self interest to God and accepting the rule of God in our lives.
Remember
1- Jesus submitted to authority --- we are to do the same
2- Jesus was pro-active in seeking God’s direction --- we are to be the same
3- Jesus was obedient --- we are to be the sameIf You Don’t Feel Awkward Doing Something New, Then You Aren’t Doing Something New!
