Dear KKIM Family,
How are you today?
May the Peace and the Strength of our Lord be with You!
It was nice checking in with Scott Flurry yesterday with the Chama, NM Radio station. Sharon and I love Chama. We are going to try to hop up there for Memorial Day!
Let us prepare our hearts, minds and souls to meet our Lord…….
Give yourself to God………..
Surrender your whole being to Him
to be used for righteous purposes. Romans 6:13
The heart of worship is surrender.
Surrender is an unpopular word, disliked almost as much as the word submission.
In today’s competitive culture we are taught to never give up and never give in—-so we don’t hear much about surrendering. But surrendering to God is the heart of worship. It is the natural response to God’s amazing love and mercy.
I would like to share with you two devotional pieces from Oswald Chambers……..
After Surrender Then What?
“I have finished the work which You have given Me to do.” John 17:4
True Surrender is not simply surrender of our external life but surrender of our will—-and once that is done, surrender is complete. The greatest crises we ever face is the surrender of our will. Yet God never forces a person’s will into surrender and He never begs. He patiently waits until that person willingly yields to Him. And once that battle has been fought, it never needs to be fought again.
Arguments or Obedience?
“The simplicity that is in Christ…..” 2 Cor. 11:3
You cannot think through spiritual confusion to make things clear; to make things clear, you must obey. In intellectual matters you can think things out, but in spiritual matters you will only think yourself into further wandering thoughts and more confusion. If there is something in your life upon which God has put His pressure, then obey Him in that matter. Bring all your “arguments and…….every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ” regarding the matter. and everything will become as clear as daylight to you 2 Cor 10:5
WOW! I have to read that again………Isn’t Oswald Chambers so wonderful!
I am so thankful for all the People of God I have been meeting over the last couple of weeks! The Lord is giving me such an AWESOME opportunity to make new friends! Sharon and I are so thankful for your friendship!
Let us pray………..
Oh Lord, make us sensitive to Your presence with us today, Lord Jesus, that we may honor You with our actions, our words, and our thoughts. Let us surrender all to You!
In the name of Jesus, AMEN!
Thank you for stopping by for a CUP today! We would love to hear from you! Please drop us a line, your words of encouragement help keep us going!!!!!!! Your words are like honey to the soul!
In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
