Everyone loves to sing songs asking God to take us deeper where our trust is without borders…until He actually does
.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to sing about God bringing Heaven to earth around me if I’m not allowing Him to bring Heaven to earth INSIDE of me first.
.
And that means walking through the struggle NOT having all the answers. Choosing to trust God when we DON'T understand. Letting patience have its PERFECT way in us.
.
Things we LOVE to sing about, but rarely ever want to actually experience.
.
But worship isn’t just singing a song…it’s a posture of the heart ❤️
.
It’s CHOOSING to believe He’s a good good Father who IS who He says He is every single step of the way.

In Mark 10 “A rich young man ran up to Jesus asking him “Good Teacher, what should I do to inherit eternal life?”
Jesus replied by telling him “you know the commandments, You must not....”
Then the young man replied, “ Teacher, I’ve obeyed all these commandments since I was young.”
Looking at the man, Jesus felt genuine LOVE for him. “There is still one thing you haven’t done,” he told him. “Go and sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
At this the man’s face fell, and he went away sad, for he had many possessions.”
Jesus might have asked this man to sell everything he had. But that doesn’t mean every Jesus follower needs to do the same.
Jesus was trying to make a point that we must not LOVE our possessions and money more than we LOVE GOD.
If Jesus asked you, could you give up your car, could you give up your house, Could you stop watching tv, Could you stop drinking, Could you leave your job, for me? What would your response be?
Are any of those things wrong to do or have in God’s eyes no, but if He asked you to give it up for Him would you? Your response can show you what is more important to you and what you are idolizing more - God or those things?
To LOVE God is to place him first over everything in your life. We cannot LOVE things more than we LOVE God.
Jesus felt GENUINE LOVE for this young man. So He was honest with him.
LOVE is being able to give advice without sugarcoating the truth, knowing that it could be hard to hear.
Jesus died for us because he LOVES us. Jesus also LOVES us enough to be honest and straightforward with us. If His LOVE was superficial then He would only give us his approval.
But His LOVE is complete. So He will give us life-changing challenges, which strengthens us, benefits our lives and brings us closer to Him.
