Remaining God's child and disciple is harder than I think most times.
Why?
I have to keep deliberately choosing to stop doing things my way, and learn to do things God's way.
How?
I intially accepted His invitation to go to go Him and receive His rest. (Matthew 11:28)
Now, I have accepted the invitation that takes me deeper, taking on His yoke and learning from Him.
(Matthew 11: 29)
Going to Him, believing in Him, confessing my sins, being born again, receiving His rest was easy enough for me. Becoming yoked with Him and learning from Him is a deeper, deeper matter. It can be painful, uncomfortable and down right impossible at times.
However, unless I am willing to let go of how I do things, and being willing to learn how God does things, in every situation, in every moment, I will not live the abundant, restful, peaceful, joyful, successful life He promised.
Are you tired of making life work on your own?
Are you tired of struggling at everything?
Are you worried that you will make it?
Are you just tired?
Accept Christ invitation now, not when you feel ready, because you will never feel ready. He will accept you now.
