Week 4 Day 2: Whatever the Cost


Luke 14:28 "For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it--"


I have no illusions. This journey will cost me EVERYTHING. But then again, what do I have that He did not give me in the first place. What does it profit for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose his soul? (My favourite part) Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul??

As I surrender my will in exchange for His, then what I have to gain will fade away...and I will finally be able to rejoice in seeing His will accomplished. It stands to reason that at this point in time my own issues will be insignificant in comparison to His surpassing glory. I have no excuse. For so long I have been held by by what I thought I could not do without but no more:I want to love, and I want to server, from a clean heart and pure conscience. No holds barred. Nothing held back. Nothing to lose because I have everything to gain from following His will.
