It is easy to want to give up and let the frustrations of this life get to us, but we cannot forget that God is in control and He does have a plan.<br /><br />Keep sowing seeds and your efforts will bear fruit.Luther@Living In Gracehttp://www.livingngrace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907072761086927765.post-53374757828878149122011-06-01T16:13:08.632-04:002011-06-01T16:13:08.632-04:00Amen! Father help me to be a living sacrifice. Som...Amen! Father help me to be a living sacrifice. Sometimes it can be so hard to be obedient and our flesh pulls us to be selfish. I think this post was geared at men, but I'm gonna comment anyway! :0)<br /><br />Lately we've been called to disciple (or at least try to!) a young girl who is lost and very confused. This has meant sacrificing time and sharing our lives. I didn't realize what a selfish person I was until this! My flesh doesn't want to share my time or my home but I know that is what I am called to, I'm leaning on God's love and wisdom and loving beyond my emotions. I am sure God will bring about good in everything and I know that He is disciplining me and this will all lead to growth but at times it is so frustrating and I want to throw in the towel! But I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! Thanks for the encouragement today!Carla@3-foldcord.comhttp://www.3-foldcord.comnoreply@blogger.com
