Give it all

"The Holy Spirit longs to reveal to you the deeper things of God.He longs to work through you. He longs to love through you. Through the blessed Holy Spirit you may have:strength for every duty, wisdom for every problem, comfort in every sorrow, joy in His overflowing service." T. J. Bach
The Lord Jesus wants us to turn our whole life over to Him, not just part of it. We can't expect to have the blessings of Christ if we give Christ anything less than everything. Our youth at church gave us an example of getting rid of the things in your life that were keeping you from God. We would throw a rock in the bucket of water to symbolize throwing away that barrier that was in our lives between us and God. The problem with most of us today is we try to get the rock back out of the bucket to many times because we throw it in the shallow bucket called self. Throw your rock into the living waters of Christ today and you will be rid of it forever.
