[Live a life of awesome adventure and radical surrender.]
God spoke this phrase into my life a few weeks ago and I believe He was referring to this upcoming World Race adventure, and also as a lifestyle I should live from here on out. I definitely have the awesome adventure part down, but radical surrender? That takes a LOT more sacrifice. Am I ready to give up everything to follow Him? I sure hope so…
Today I was listening to the radio while driving and I heard a song that speaks to this–I want my life to echo these powerful lyrics.
“I Will Follow”–Chris Tomlin
Where you go, I’ll go
Where you stay, I’ll stay
When you move, I’ll move
I will follow…
All your ways are good
All your ways are sure
I will trust in you alone
Higher than my side
High above my life
I will trust in you alone
Where you go, I’ll go
Where you stay, I’ll stay
When you move, I’ll move
I will follow you
Who you love, I’ll love
How you serve I’ll serve
If this life I lose, I will follow you
I will follow you
Light unto the world
Light unto my life
I will live for you alone
You’re the one I seek
Knowing I will find
All I need in you alone, in you alone
In you there’s life everlasting
In you there’s freedom for my soul
In you there joy, unending joy
and I will follow
God, I give up all that I am to follow You. Help me to surrender myself daily to You. Give me the courage to live radically for You.
