Here is the fundamental question with which you must wrestle to a real conclusion:
Does Jesus have the final authority over all your decisions ?
Father God has undertaken to prove to you His love for you.
The Holy Spirit has been speaking with you on a regular basis.
But, the crucial question is whether Jesus is Lord or not.
He has proven himself to be the one who loves and forgives.
He has proven himself to be your provider.
But, Lordship implies submission in response to His proven love.
You always have the choice. He will NEVER take control of you.
Up to this point in your life you have always reserved the right to say no to anything He may ask of you.
It is a power and ability that each of us has and will continue to have as long as we live in this world.
But, the implication of saying Jesus is Lord is we are making a personal choice to give up that right and saying to Him,
“Whatever you ask of me I will do it as you give me grace.”
Your growth into the fullness of all that His love would provide for you requires that you actively choose Him to be Lord with absolutely final authority over all your decisions. It requires giving up your right to live a self centered life.
All of creation is waiting with anticipation for you to decide.
His, thus Yours,
Stuart
