I offer you my life from thus moment and for whenever you wish me to lay it down for your glory. ~Saint Catherine of Siena
God wants nothing less than everything. He wants not just a part of us, not just our Sunday lives, not just the “good” parts, but every part, every moment, every cell, every thought, every desire. His. All his.
When we willingly offer ourselves completely and thoroughly to him, we gain true freedom. We are set free from the bounds of our sinful natures. We are given a life plan that will bring glory to God. We have a purpose. We have meaning. We matter.
When we let God have it all, we will learn that where our strength ends, his begins. We will help others. We will build the kingdom. And, beyond our wildest imagining, we will bring glory to our Creator all the way up until the moment when we lay down this life and enter the next.
All for his glory.
Prayer for Meditation
Take my life, Lord, every part. I want it all to bring glory to you.
Scripture for Meditation
Do not let any part of your body become a tool of wickedness to be used for sinning. Instead, give yourselves completely to God since you have been given new life. And use your whole body as a tool to do what is right for the glory of God. Romans 6:13
