Try Me

"Try me Lord - see if there is any wicked way in me. Show me where I'm living contrary to Your Word. I want to be delivered from everything that's unlike You. Away with all my pride, my ambitions, my selfish intellect, my reasoning. I know I can't think my way out of my situation. Holy Spirit, I need Your power and wisdom. I lay down every hope of solving things my own way." David Wilkerson "Change Me O Lord" 12/8/1999

Have you come to this place? 

A place of submission; laying it all down - 

A place of realization you have nothing to contribute BUT your will-

A place of "do with me what You want -

It's a hard place -

And the best place to be -

It's where you become the "lump" and He can start to mold you; make you into the vessel He wants, without your advice!

 “And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter; so he made it again into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to make.”
‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭18:4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Giving up control, and letting Him be God is required, to be His servant. 

It's where you get peace! 

Obedience, submission, trust -
Freedom! Joy! Purpose!

This should be titled - how to be sheep!

Follow the Shepherd's voice!

“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.”
‭‭John‬ ‭10:27‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Even so - MARANATHA!
