Give Up Everything - 2
Jesus told the rich young ruler to sell everything and give it to the poor. When we give our hearts to Jesus and invite Him to be our Lord and Savior, we modern Christians know, intellectually, that we are giving up ownership and control of everything in our lives to God. We do not sell everything and give it to the poor, but we do know that us and our stuff now belongs to God.
The problem is that our car title is still in our name and our paycheck has our name on it. It seems like all our stuff belongs to us and is under our control. How do we reconcile the mental conflict of owning all my stuff but, it now belongs to God?
We read how Jesus said that the greatest in His Kingdom would be slaves of all, and then see that Jesus as our example, considered Himself a slave to the Father, doing and saying only what He first saw and heard from His Heavenly Daddy. But, when I become converted, I was adopted as a King’s kid. How do I resolve the mental conflict of being a King’s kid who is a slave?
How do we live our lives in such a way that we give up everything to God without selling anything? How do I live in God’s Kingdom on this earth with everything of mine belonging to God while it is all still in my name?
