Freedom

I asked God Sunday... what do you mean when you say in your word... the truth will set you free? He spoke so softly to my spirit... telling me, Freedom is when you can lay everything in front of him and say "take it all" not just some of it....everything. I thought I was free. I have a great life, God has blessed me so much I couldn't even begin to count how many times he has blessed me... but was I free in him? I have burdens that I seem to drag around with me... week after week and a few worries here and there, but why? Why do I keep picking up the same one over and over and over? He says give him everything so why don't we listen? Oh sure we listen here and there using our selective hearing and only letting him lead us so far and then say "oh no God... I can't do that" or I need to cry over this hurt that I have held onto for years... poor little me. Sunday was a eye-opener or should I say a "free" day. I have been down for awhile and kinda goin thru the motions. Which is just part of life... I assume. Yes I love God and honor him with my life... but was I really trusting him with my ALL? Talk about Freedom... when you give EVERYTHING to him... you have nothing else to carry, he is carrying it all for us!! He wants to take it all... but we seem to clench onto it for dear life. Lord I will praise you always and I need you... not just on a Sunday or a wednesday but Every single day of my life... every part. When I'm happy, sad, angry or Whatever!!! I need you Jesus!!!
