"I'll
go where you want me to go dear Lord. . ."
A wonderful song, isn't it? But, oh how
hard it is for so many to actually tell the Lord that, and mean
it.
The problem has roots in a lack
of faith. The problem is not a dislike of difficulty - most of
us don't like what we don't like! And it isn't just leaving what
is familiar.
The issue is, can God be trusted
or not? Is He sadistically pouncing on victims who will be
willing robots, or can He be trusted to lead us into blessing
and reveal the ". . .riches, hidden up in Christ Jesus.
. .?"
He has never deserted a Soldier,
He has never teased a Soldier, and He has never led a Soldier
of the Cross into a place without Glory.
He can be trusted. What's more,
He wants to lead us into heaven, and some of us go kicking and
screaming all the way.
Not so for the soldier of the Cross.
I'll go
where you want me to go dear Lord;
Over mountain or plain or sea.
I'll say what you want me
to say, dear Lord.
I'll be what you want me to be! |
