Reluctance

May 5, 2009

What if he actually told me what it is he wants me to do . . . and I don’t want to do it?

We are in a vulnerable spot. We have told him we will do anything. Anything that he calls us to, we will do . . . anything.

Go. Stay. Speak. Be quiet. Stand up. Sit down. Redeem children. Redeem dirty dishes. Something big. Something small. Anything drastic. Nothing fancy. Anything.

That I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, that by any means possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead. (Philippians 3:10–11, emphasis added)

I want to know Christ . . . Yes!

And the power of his resurrection . . . Yes!

And the fellowship of sharing in his suffering . . . um . . . maybe?

Becoming like him in his death . . . not at all!

Could I have Starbucks while I decide?

And somehow to attain to the resurrection of the dead . . . big YES!

Please, somehow, God save me!

Some days I am willing and some days I feel reluctant.

Maybe I could do whatever big or small things if he would help me . . .

God, overcome me. Please.
