Shalom,

I was really blessed with today's "My Utmost For His Highest" by Oswald Chambers!

Neck Or Nothing

Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him,…and did cast himself into the sea. — John 21:7

Have you ever had a crisis in which you deliberately and emphatically and recklessly abandoned everything? It is a crisis of will. You may come up to it many times externally, but it amounts to nothing. The real deep crisis of abandonment is reached internally, not externally. The giving up of external things may be an indication of being in total bondage.

Have you deliberately committed your will to Jesus Christ? It is a transaction of will, not of emotion; the emotion is simply the gilt edge of the transaction. If you allow emotion first, you will never make the transaction. Do not ask God what the transaction is to be, but make it in regard to the thing you do see, either in the shallow or the profound place.

If you have heard Jesus Christ’s voice on the billows, let your convictions go to the winds, let your consistency go to the winds, but maintain your relationship to Him.

AMEN! The Person we should be MOST concerned with pleasing in this life is JESUS! NO ONE loves us more! HE is worthy of, and deeply deserves, our entire heart and all that we are! Bow before Him NOW, as LORD and KING, and you will never regret that most important decision! JUST DO IT! NOW! Here is Hillsong with None But You:

Shalom in Him!
